Utility Stringing Lines Power Line

Halyards, Jib Lines, Control Lines.

Balanced or torque free and will not rotate under load. High strength and low stretch. It is the easiest rope to splice. Excellent handling on winches and pulleys. Open construction allows easy inspection. Good dielectric properties.

PowerLine is the preferred stringing rope for many utility companies and contractors. Powerline has more than enough tensile to do the job, its special Buccaneer Coating provides durability and it is, in fact, the most economical stringing rope on the market.

Buccaneer Coating is available in orange, yellow, blue, and green for color coding purposes. Please specify color choice when ordering.

Long lengths available.

PowerLine

An 8-strand rope, combining high strength and low stretch, made of 100% Polyester. A balanced rope easily spliced in 50 seconds. Manufactured with Buccaneer Coating for extra abrasion resistance and longer life.

Uses: stringing lines, and winch lines

Rope Safety Considerations

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.
