  MAXILINE
 
Maxiline Ropes are manufactured from extruded high strength Poypropylene yarns.

Maxiline Ropes are produced from extruded embossed yarns and cover a range of standard 3-strand laid.

Maxiline Ropes are tough, extremely strong and easy to work and knot. They are UV stabilised with excellent weathering properties and have a high strength-to-weight ratio.

Maxiline Ropes are high strength, economical general purpose ropes suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, particularly marine, construction, mining, trucking, rural, commercial, fishing, petroleum and domestic areas.
 

APPLICATIONS:
Truck ropes
Nets
Ladder Ropes
Foot ropes
Tarpaulin ties
Blasting mats
Car tow ropes
Air sea rescue lines
Slings
Control ropes
Head lines
Ducting draw cords

Strength: Maxiline Ropes are extremely strong. They are unaffected by water and so retain the same high strength whether wet or dry.

Elongation:
At breaking load, Maxiline Ropes elongate by 25-30%, and at 25% of breaking load by 13-16%. Elongation characteristics depend upon rope size and construction.

Energy Absorption:
Maxiline Ropes can absorb repeated shock loads of relatively high orders. Their extensibility and elasticity are better than Sisal and Manila Ropes; but not as good as Nylon Ropes because Maxiline has a lower energy absorption capacity than Nylon.

Abrasion Resistance:
Maxiline Ropes have excellent abrasion characteristics and they resist external wear well.

Specific Gravity:
The specific gravity of Polypropylene is 0.91. Maxiline Ropes float in water.

Resistance to Chemicals:
Maxiline Ropes are resistant to acids and alkalis, most common solvents and oxidising agents.

Sensitivity:
Maxiline Ropes are sensitive to bleaching agents (Sodium Hypo-chlorite), cleaning agents and solvents (Xylene, Toluene, Trichloroethylene). Although polypropylene is sensitive to UV radiation (sunlight), Maxiline Ropes are stabilised to combat the harmful effects of harsh Australian climatic conditions.

Reaction to Flame:
Maxiline Ropes ignite when in contact with flame and support combustion.

Reaction to Water:
Maxiline Ropes do not absorb water and are not affected by water.

Storage:
Maxiline Ropes should be stored in a cool, well ventilated dry store, never in closed containers. Maxiline Ropes should be stacked on wooden gradings or racks, or special coil pegson stands. They should not be exposed to the weather or direct sunlight.
When storing Maxiline ropes, ensure that they are stored away from: racks of heavy objects whose inadvertent fall may result in damage to the rope; from chemicals and other agents; containers containing liquids which may leak; and sources of sparks. Maxiline Ropes should not be stored under conditions of high heat or excessively drying atmospheres.
Maxiline Ropes should never be dried in front of a fire or stored near a stove or other sources of heat.
