1/2" STATIC KMIII ROPE - RED
1/2" STATIC KMIII ROPE - RED
KM-III's unique polyester sheath differentiates KM-III from other static
ropes. The polyester sheath is balanced with a nylon core to limit
rotation, bouncing, and stretch with exceptional UV resistance. KM-III
is NFPA and CE approved, and comes with an NFPA certification tag and CE
labels. This is one of the most durable static ropes available with the
handling and knotability you expect. The sheath is braided with 32 bobbins to provide an optimum sheath/core
ratio. This allows for an incredibly smooth sheath, higher tensile
strengths, and superior handling characteristics.

Approved Class - general use
Very little degradation from sunlight. Can be used outside over long term if inspected regularly.
Polyester has good resistance to most chemicals except 95% sulfuric acid and strong alkalines at boil.
Polyester melts at 480 degrees Fahrenheit with progressive strength loss above 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
Good resistance to the passage of electrical current. However, dirt,
surface contaminants, water entrapment, and the like can significantly
affect dielectric properties. Extreme caution should be exercised any
time a rope is in the proximity of live circuits.

No blanket safe working load (SWL) recommendations can be made for any
line because SWL's must be calculated based on application, conditions
of use, and potential danger to personnel among other considerations. It
is recommended that the end user establish working loads and safety
factors based on best practices established by the end user's industry
