PARAWEB


High strength synthetic fibres encased in a tough, durable polymeric sheath

PARAWEB™ consists of discrete bundles of closely packed high strength synthetic fibres, lying parallel to each other, encased in a tough and durable polymeric sheath. This parallel fibre structure and tough polymeric sheath ensures a combination of outstanding properties.

There are several standard types of PARAWEB™ based on the type of fibre used, and the width of webbing required. For most applications the versatility of PARAWEB™ enables specific PARAWEB™ products to be tailor made. Typical product ranges are shown in the Table. Other products can be developed.

 


Applications for PARAWEBinclude cargo slings; lifting and securing loops, civil engineering and soil reinforcement, windbreak fencing, high strength fabrics, underground mining…
