Enduring strength and reliability Demanding market There is increasing demand for ropes and cables that can stand up to tough conditions. In the mining and offshore industry, key issues are longer lifespans, lifting heavier weights and reaching greater depths. As a result, there is a need for greater efficiencies and enabling technologies, putting even more pressure on ropes and cables. Our para-aramids Twaron and Technora have a proven track record of helping to meet these demands. With a unique combination of properties, Twaron and Technora have major advantages over more traditional materials such as steel. At Teijin Aramid we try to find the optimal solution by co-creating with our partners. Key benefits when using our aramid • ong lifespan L • ow weight L • igh efficiency H • ow maintenance L • ood heat stability G • ong-term dimensional stability L

A unique combination Ropes and cables are widely used in the mining, offshore, and leisure industries. There are basically two main types of ropes and cables: those that are designed for static applications and those that are designed for dynamic applications. In contrast with static and (semi)-static applications, ropes are bent (over sheaves) in dynamic applications. Teijin Aramid is uniquely able to provide para-aramids that are suitable for both static and dynamic applications. Static applications Twaron is the best choice where the highest possible modulus is required. It is therefore particularly...
