Shark Byte mooring ropes
Oceanographic mooring ropes: sinking Shark Byte 8 plaited rope to match existing systems, and Shark Byte 12, described as the first synthetic rope designed to resist shark-bite damage.
Description
Yale's Shark Byte ropes are designed for oceanographic mooring systems.
Key features
- Shark Byte 8: 8-plait composite of copolymer olefins and polyester
- Shark Byte 8 is made to match existing mooring line systems and has a higher specific gravity so it sinks
- Shark Byte 12: 12-strand single braid whose strands are a composite of copolymer olefins randomly mixed with Vectran LCP fibre
- Yale describes Shark Byte 12 as the first synthetic rope designed from the ground up to resist shark-bite damage
Applications
Ocean moorings for buoys and instruments where lines are exposed to marine life and must match or replace existing mooring components.
