Rope
Polyethylene
Polyethylene (PE) is a fiber that has traditionally been widely used by sailors. Thanks to its good resistance to abrasion, PE can be used for applications where the rope passes through sheaves, for trawl mounting, as float line or as cork rope for seines.
APPLICATION
Trawl: Bottom and pelagic trawl: various uses on deck
Seines: Tuna and sardine seines: various uses on deck
Aquaculture: Orins, pot lines
multiple usesMooring, lifting, mooring, towing
