    We are a UHMWPE fiber supplier from China, and we have super wear-resistant, super cut-resistant yarns. We are leaders in this industry.

      So cut the fiber is easy?

    I'm looking for something extremely strong but much thiner. Like a 2mm diameter - or so. Suggestions? It would have to match paracord in strenght but have a lesser diameter.

      I would recommend 1/8 inch UHMWPE rope (around 3 mm is the smallest) but this rope is as strong as steel rope of the same diameter. rightrope.com/product/uhmwmpe-rope-hmpe/

    I noticed the chart (00:55) sticks to the 20% (1/5) Safety Factor. If I'm not mistaken aren't these ultra-high synthetic molec. ropes allowed to use up to 55% their WILL by OCIMF Standard? At least in the maritime and ship mooring business?

      Some industries and some manufacturers may allow a safety factor of less than 5:1, but as a general rule, we recommend a minimum of 5:1. Usually when reductions are made, it is with the guidance of an engineer who has taken all the details of the job into consideration.

    Is synthetic rope lubricated by anything? If yes, what is the lubricant?

    • @RightRopeOfficial

      This HMPE rope is coated with urethane. It helps hold the fibers together and does add some lubricity.

    How can you splice the polyethylene fiber

    • @RightRopeOfficial

      This particular rope is a 12-strand single braid. It can be spliced using a class 2, 12-strand splice seen here: ua-cam.com/video/T8ENqS6b51I/v-deo.html. You can also use a locking brummel splice.

    With 3/8" sk78 rated at 19700 LBS MBS what should the MBS be on soft shackles

      We don't have that data available, but you can find similar data on Samson Rope's site.

    "Stronger than steel wire rope"? Maybe... But my steel winch cable is not going to be damaged by hitting a hot exhaust pipe and it won't get cut by a knife... Steel cable is cheaper and more durable, so I'll stick with it for now...
    According to your website, 100 ft of 1/2" UHMWPE rope would cost $224.66... That's over 2.5 times the price of 1/2" steel wire rope... Just doesn't make fiscal sense for me...

      Steel cable is extremely durable and lasts a very long time. Most applications that prefer the UHMWPE over the steel are concerned about weight, and snapback in case of failure. If neither of those are a concern for you, steel cable is definitely the way to go.
