Strength:
Sash cords are strong and their strength
is not effected by water.
Elongation: The elongation of sash
cords has been designed to withstand shock
loads of hanging windows.
Abrasion resistance: Sash cords have
good abrasion resistance and resist
external wear well.
Resistance: Cotton sash cords are
resistant to weak acids to, organic
solvents and alkalis. Polypropylene sash
cords are resistant to acids and alkalis
and many common solvent and oxidising
agents. Polypropylene sash cords are UV
stabilised to combat the harmful effects
of the harsh Australian climatic
conditions.
Sensitivity: Cotton sash cords
decompose in contact with strong
concentrated acids eg. Sulphuric acid. If
painted, Cotton sash cords will become
stiff and hard. Paint should not be
cleaned off with mineral turpentine as
this will have considerable effect on the
cord and it may decompose or dissolve.
Reaction to Flame: Cotton and
Polypropylene Sash Cords ignite when in
contact with flame and support combustion.
Storage: Sash cords should be stored
in a cool, well ventilated dry store and
never in closed containers. When storing
ropes, 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.
Sash cords should not be stored under
condition of high heat or excessively
drying atmospheres. Sash cords should
never be dried in front of a fire or store
near a stove or other source of heat.
