Forestry Skyline Strops

Total Rope Worx NZ Ltd designs and splices UHMwPE (Dyneema) Forestry Skyline Strops.

Our Skyline Strops have been used successfully in the NZ Forest Industry  for over six years and are still going strong

All our splicers are 100% internationally certified.

 

Forestry Skyline Strops have been used by the NZ logging industry for over six years with a number of logging companies successfully changing from wire rope to synthetic  strops, it’s better for your crew with far less fatigue from carrying large & heavy strops out.

We design and splice our strops here in Mount Maunganui to your requirements, they are industry proven and all our splicers are internationally certified.

This rope is designed for high load applications where exceptionally low weight is required—making for an excellent wire-replacement rope. The heat treatment and polyurethane coating applied increases the rope’s abrasion resistance, prolonging its life.

  • 15 x stronger than steel
  • 8 x lighter than steel wire rope
  • Safer than wire (low recoil)
  • Hydrophobic fibre (no water absorption)
  • Floats
  • Low creep
  • Easy to splice
  • Resistant to kinking
  • Maintains high strength around tight-radius bends
  • Exceptional UV and chemical resistance
  • Abrasion-resistant coating reduces likelihood of snagging and provides superior winch drum grip
