The
advantage of using nylon rope is that it is waterproof and has the ability to
stretch, absorb shocks, and resume normal length. It also resists abrasion,
rot, decay, and fungus growth.
Nylon was
first made in 1935. It was intended to be a substitute for silk and was used in
place of silk in parachutes in 1941, when the USA entered World War II. Synthetic
round slings offer a number of advantages for rigging purposes. Synthetic
fibres are much stronger, and hence more durable than natural fibres.
Time- Lightweight fiber slings offer
significant reductions in rigging time and manpower. They are 1/7th the weight
of steel wire rope or more. In heavy lift projects, installation crews also
receive savings in transportation and storage costs.
HSE benefits - Lightweight rope and round slings
offer superior flexibility which translates into fewer rigging injuries. They
are also soft of hand causing little damage to rigger or expensive payloads.
Longer service life - Modern
high strength synthetic fibers are remarkably durable and will not rust,
corrode or fish-hook. They are not affected by fresh or salt water. Wear points
can be protected from abrasion, cutting and heat damage. They are designed for
multiple lift use and are easy to inspect.
