DECK MACHINERY & WINCHES TESTING & QUALITY ASSURANCE


Southern Ropes has recently installed a new test bed. The Wirop 300 Ton Test Bed is now up and running. As the increase for Super-12® hMPE demands have grown in the commercial marine industry, Southern Ropes has found the need to have larger facilities to test their ropes. With the increased demands for Super-12® hMPE the Wirop 300 Ton test bed has proven useful.


Southern Ropes has a smaller IDM 20 Ton test bed for the smaller Super-12® hMPE diameters.


Now that Southern Ropes manufactures high load application ropes and the demand has increased, these two test beds will become extremely important. Testing and providing evidence that you can meet the load expectations is crucial to show that the rope is fit for the job. Super-12® hMPE rope is designed for high load applications where exceptionally low weight is required making for an excellent wire-replacement rope. heat treatment and polyurethane coating applied increases the Super-12® rope’s abrasion resistance and prolongs its life.


Founded in 1984, Southern Ropes is one of the largest manufacturers of high quality synthetic ropes. They cater to an


array of markets, including Commercial Marine, Leisure Marine, Industrial, Mining and The Armed Forces.


Southern Ropes manufacture twisted and braided ropes to standard and custom specifications, extruding polypropylene and polyethylene yarns on site. Southern Ropes is at the forefront of rope innovation, combining the latest rope-making technologies with strong and durable materials like UhMwPE, Vectran® and Technora®.


Their world-renowned ropes conform to British (BS), European (EN) and South African (SABS) standards, and is ISO 9001 : 2008 accredited.
