16-Strand Marine Mooring Rope

Our comprehensive range of 16 strand ropes represents the pinnacle of modern rope-making technology, offering superior strength, durability, and handling characteristics for the most demanding marine and industrial applications. We manufacture a full spectrum of synthetic ropes using high-quality fibers, including nylon (polyamide), polypropylene, polyester, and polypropylene/polyester mixed constructions, ensuring the perfect line for every task.

The 16 strand braided construction is a significant advancement in rope technology. Utilizing imported high-speed braiding machinery, this specialized structure and manufacturing process optimizes the utilization rate of fiber strength. The result is a rope with outstanding advantages: low elongation under load, exceptional wear resistance, a smooth surface, and easy operation making it ideal for applications where performance and reliability are non-negotiable.

Our ropes are the preferred choice for critical operations in:

  • Shipbuilding and Shipyards

  • Ocean Transportation and Merchant Shipping

  • Offshore Petroleum Drilling

  • National Defense and Military Industry

  • Harbor Loading and Unloading (Tugs & Port Operations)

Key Features & Benefits:

  • ✔ Optimized 16 Ply Braided Structure: The unique braid pattern maximizes the utilization rate of fiber strength, resulting in a stronger, more efficient rope than conventional constructions.

  • ✔ Low Elongation: Engineered to minimize stretch under load, providing better control during critical towing and mooring operations.

  • ✔ Exceptional Wear Resistance: The braided construction creates a durable outer surface that withstands abrasion against fairleads, bitts, and dock edges.

  • ✔ Smooth & Easy to Handle: The rope has a round, smooth profile that is easy on the hands and runs freely through winches and blocks without hockling.

  • ✔ Wide Material Selection: Available in nylon (polyamide), polyester, polypropylene, and mixed fibers to match specific requirements for strength, flotation, UV resistance, and chemical resistance.

Technology & Manufacturing Excellence

Our 16 strand ropes are manufactured to the highest standards, incorporating imported braiding technology to ensure consistent quality and performance.

  • Coil Length: Standard 220 meters (custom lengths available)

  • Spliced Strength: Approximately 10% lower than the nominal Minimum Breaking Load (MBL).

  • Weight and Length Tolerance: ± 5%

  • MBL (Minimum Breaking Load): Determined in accordance with ISO 2307 standards.

  • Other Sizes: Available upon request for specialized applications.
