High-Tenacity Polypropylene Rope for Marine & Offshore Applications
Engineered for strength, built to endure.
The Supertuf NXT 8-Strand Mooring Rope by Tufropes is a high-performance synthetic rope designed for critical marine operations, including vessel mooring, towing, and offshore applications. Manufactured from high-tenacity polypropylene (HTPP) fibers, Supertuf NXT offers excellent strength-to-weight ratio, superior floatation, and exceptional resistance to abrasion, UV degradation, and saltwater corrosion.
With its 8-strand plaited construction, this rope delivers optimal flexibility, easy handling, and reduced recoil under load—making it ideal for both manual and mechanized deck operations.
Key Features:
- High Strength & Low Weight: Stronger than conventional polypropylene ropes, yet lightweight for easier handling.
- Floats on Water: Specific gravity < 1.0 ensures the rope stays afloat, reducing risk of entanglement in marine gear.
- 8-Strand Construction: Balanced plaited design for excellent torque-free performance and reduced twist under tension.
- UV & Weather Resistant: Specially stabilized against ultraviolet rays, saltwater exposure, and temperature fluctuations.
- Abrasion-Resistant Finish: Enhanced durability and longer service life, even under rugged operational conditions.
- Conforms to International Standards: Manufactured in line with ISO and OCIMF MEG guidelines for marine safety and performance.
Typical Applications:
- Ship and barge mooring
- Tug and tow lines
- Offshore rig mooring
- Floating barriers or buoys
- Marine construction
- Material: Polypropylene
- Marking: According to standard
- Standard: ISO 10572, DNV-CP-0100
