ARAPALINE |
| |
| Arapaline
static life rescue lines are kernmantle
construction using Plaited High Tenacity Nylon
Cover over a Parallel High Tenacity Nylon Core.
Arapaline has been specifically designed for use
in twin and single line rescue systems, tactical
urban approach and repelling techniques, high
angle evacuations, anchor and rigging systems,
abseiling and repelling. |

Quality: Arapaline
fully complies with Australian Standard AS
4142.3-1993 Man-made fibre rope for static
life rescue lines and has a minimum breaking
load of 3000 kgf (11-mm).
Elongation: The
elongation of Arapaline has been designed to
minimise shock loads for greater safety and
versatility in rescue applications.
Abrasion resistance:
Arapaline has a diamond braid sheath
delivering higher abrasion resistance and
superior protection critical in rescue and
abseiling applications.
Melting Point:
Arapaline has a melting point of 250oC
delivering superior heat performance.
Resistance:
Arapaline is resistant to organic solvents and
weak organic and mineral acids. If the rope
comes into contact with any chemicals it
should be retired from service immediately.
Arapaline is UV stabilised to combat the
harmful effects of the harsh Australian
climatic conditions.
Sensitivity:
Arapaline is sensitive to phenols, strong
acids and is dissolved by concentrated formic
acid.
Reaction to Flame:
Arapaline ignites when in contact with flame
and will support combustion.
Washing: Arapaline
may be hand washed using natural soap flakes
in warm or cold water, cleaning the rope with
a nylon or polypropylene scrubbing brush.
Rinse thoroughly with cold water and drip dry.
Arapaline may be machine washed in a front
loading washing machine using natural soap
flakes in warm or cold water. Fabric softener
may be added during washing. Run an extra cold
water rinse cycle and drip dry.
Shelf life:
Arapaline Life Rescue Lines stored unused in a
well ventilated, dry atmosphere, away from
heat, strong light and damaging chemicals
(ideal conditions) have a shelf life of 7
years. Arapaline Life Rescue Lines stored
unused in non-ideal conditions, eg, inside
vehicles and therefore exposed to high
temperatures have a shelf life of 3.5 years.
Storage: Arapaline
should be stored in a cool, well ventilated
dry store and never in closed containers.
Arapaline should be stacked on wooden grading
or racks, or special pegs on stands. The cord
should not be exposed to weather or direct
sunlight. When storing Arapaline, ensure they
are stored away from heavy objects, which may
fall and damage the rope, chemicals or other
liquids, which may leak and sources of sparks.
Arapaline should not be stored under
conditions of high heat or excessively drying
atmospheres.
Arapaline should never be dried in front of a
fire or store near a stove or other source of
heat. |
