Safety Orange Tree Rope is a four stage, 3-strand twisted rope manufactured from 100% Polyester that is impregnated with Buccaneer Power Coating for abrasion resistance and to repel dirt and grime (enemies of fiber rope). Like all three strand ropes, Safety Orange is easily spliced with eyes, thimble eyes or loops.
Safety Orange is designed to do the dirty work of pulling, lifting and rigging in the most demanding places. The strength and durability make it a great choice any time but the economical price makes it THE CHOICE in the DIRTIEST places.
Diameter | Circumference | Tensile Strength Lbs | Lbs. Per 100' |
---|---|---|---|
1/2" | 1-1/2" | 6,400 | 8.0 |
5/8" | 2" | 10,000 | 13.0 |
3/4" | 2-1/4" | 12,500 | 17.5 |
Now you have a bull rope for any and all applications.
New Rope Tensile Strengths: New rope tensile strengths are based on tests in accordance with ASTM Test Method D-4268 on new and unused rope in laboratory condition.
Working loads: Working loads are for rope in good condition with approximate splices, in non-critical applications, under normal service conditions. Working loads should be exceeded only with expert knowledge of conditions and professional estimates of risk. Working loads should be reduced where life, limb, or valuable property are involved, or for exceptional service conditions such as shock loads, sustained loads, etc.
The Cordage Institute specifies that the Safe Working Load of rope shall be determined by dividing the Minimum Tensile Strength by the Safety Factor. Safety factors range from 5 to 12 for non-critical uses.
