If you work in an industry where rope plays an essential part in your safety, you’re probably aware of HMPE rope. Although you may not be aware of what it stands for. The acronym is derived directly form the chemical name which the rope is made of, high modulus polyethylene. Perhaps you know HMPE rope by it’s other name, UltraHigh Molecular Weight PolyEthylene. This type of rope offers a large variety of performance and durability properties which depends on the grade and consistency of the fiber make up. In case you weren’t aware, it is one of if not the MOST forgiving of the high modulus fiber ropes, allowing for better sheave cycling capabilities. HMPE rope also has no, and I mean no water absorbing factors, allowing it to float as well as maintain its flexibility, even in freezing conditions.
