Using two different materials to construct a rope is a powerful way to bring together multiple performance characteristics. That’s the approach used by Yale Cordage Polydyne Rope, which is a product that features a nylon core and a polyester sleeve. This line delivers significant strength and plenty of stretch, which is a powerful combination. Contact SEACO today to learn more or to place your order.

Polydyne Applications
- Marine applications. Mooring lines need to be strong and durable, and a little stretch can allow them to absorb energy without doing damage to the vessel.
- Commercial tasks. Plenty of rugged industrial applications can be handled through the use of Polydyne, and there are 14 sizes available to fill a variety of demands.
- Rigging work. The ability to absorb energy can be crucial in rigging applications, so this is another area where Polydyne can shine.
Features of Polydyne
- Durability. By using polyester for the sleeve of this double-braided rope, Yale has created a product that can take abuse day after day.
- Significant breaking strength. In the largest available diameter (1 1/2’’), Polydyne has an Average Spliced Break Strength of 90,000 pounds.
- Useful stretch characteristics. Stretch is not always a positive attribute in a rope, but Polydyne is a great pick when stretch is needed without sacrificing strength.
