Description
D12 78 is characterised by it is lightweight, low stretch and high strength making it an ideal rope for the replacement of steel wire. Strength for strength, D12 78 is 8 times lighter than an equivalent steel wire rope and exhibits none of the drawbacks with steel such as corrosion, wire spliters and dangerous recoil in the case of system failure. Â D12 78 has Marlow’s ArmourCoat coating as standard which increases abrasion resistance and its coefficient of friction. Â However, Marlow also have a range of coatings to tackle issues such as flex fatigue and heat generation.
