Portland Braid - Single Braid Rope
Details
Portland Braid double-braided polyester offers high value at a very competitive price. Built in the same manner as our Double Esterlon, Portland Braid offers consistent performance at an economical price.
- Balanced double braid
- Low stretch
- Great wear life
- Easily spliced
The fiber used to produce Portland Braid is sourced from Yale’s qualified suppliers. Portland Braid can be special ordered in ultra-long continuous lengths. We also offer our optional Maxijacket urethane coating to further enhance the rope’s wear resistance.
Specs
* Knots and abrupt bends significantly reduce the strength of all ropes and lower the maximum working load.
** Working load is based on static or moderately dynamic lifting/pulling operations. Instantaneous changes in load, up or down, in excess of 10% of the rope’s rated working load constitute hazardous shock load and would void the normal working-load recommendation. Consult Yale Cordage for guidelines for working loads and the safe use of rope.
Specific Gravity: 1.38
Dielectric Strength: The maximum allowable leakage for clean, dry Portland Braid is 100 micro-amperes when tested at 100kV per Yale Method 712-1701 Rev 1 “Routine Production Test.” Absorbed and entrained moisture or impurities will increase rope’s conductivity dramatically.
