Strong GTP R light grey – light grey outstanding features compared to other UHMWPE cords delivered on original power coil with light protection ring in blister pack. Roundness inner strength air resistance The "R" stands for "round and tight", meaning "round and firm". This cord is made using a very special braiding process of peak UHMWPE fibres. Type R12 consists of, for example, 300x8 = 2400 individual fibres, which are intertwined in a very small angle. This creates an almost circular line cross section, the arrow-like dimpel on the surface (English language not guaranteed). dimples. This "round and fixed" special braid has, in addition to the very good overall characteristics, yet another great advantage that many others of the so-called "braided" do not have. Namely: with all STROFT GTP cords a self-clamping spliced loop can be produced, which has a significantly higher load capacity than all otherwise known knot connections (see also page 34 in the catalogue). Types R01 to R06 are extremely fine cords in an actual cross-section range of diameters from 0.07 mm to 0.13 mm. A special peak UHMWPE fibre, bundled in strands, with only a few individual fibres each, allows you to get started in this area. However, a large-scale series production is not economical as there is no larger area of application for these strengths. Nevertheless, we introduce these finest types here, also to show what is technically possible. And maybe someone is looking for such "spinning threads" for special applications?
