D12 SK78
12 x 1 plaited, with Dyneema®
made with Dyneema® SK78
There is a long list of advantages of using Dyneema® fibres to replace steel wire, polyester or nylon. The very strong and very light D12, with Dyneema®, has proven to be an efficient and well performing alternative:
- extremely light
- extremely strong
- easy handling
- lower loading on hardware (please note: the way of loading is different)
- low stretch, low shrinkage
- high cut resistance
- long life
The construction is easily spliceable. Changes to our construction can be applied to suit specific applications. We can support our customers with installation-, handling- and inspection guidelines.
Van Beelen can perform testing for classification certificates of DNV-GL, Lloyd's Register and other classification and technical assurance bureaus, in the test facility in IJmuiden.
D12 is available in SK60, SK75 (XBO), SK78 (XBO), DM20, SK90, SK99, HS en DUPLEX.
All D12 can be supplied with different types of overbraid, such as (combinations of) polyester, Dyneema®, Technora®. Kevlar® or Vectran®.
