Fast splicing 12-strand single braid construction, high-strength Ultra Blue fiber creates a rope that is 30% to 35% higher in strength than the equivalent polypropylene construction, giving Quik-Spice up to three times more wear life than polypropylene. The unique fiber surface develops excellent grip capability while adding to the surface wear life. In addition, the Ultra Blue fiber has excellent dielectric properties and is extruded with Samson’s SL-5 ultraviolet inhibitor to provide superior resistance to sunlight degradation.
