Turbo-EPX

Jacketed, torque-free, Samthane-coated mooring and towing line at 1/6th the weight of wire with high grip.

Description

Turbo-EPX is a jacketed rope whose durable jacket provides grip and protects the strength-member core. Core and jacket work together to prevent excess cover slack during mooring operations, giving a firm, round, torque-free rope similar to wire but lighter. It performs on all types of winches with better flex and tension fatigue resistance than wire.

Key features

  • Firm, round, torque-free jacketed construction
  • Samthane coating improves service life, reduces snagging and prevents contamination
  • Requires a specialized splicing technique; cover repair kit available

Applications

  • Mooring lines
  • Towing lines
