Drisse polyester "équitation étho"

Anti UV treatment

To stay intact in the face of prolonged exposure to the sun, our synthetics are treated to resist UV.

Better resistance to weather

Rain, snow, sea water... Our synthetic ropes are designed to last in the face of moisture and corrosion.

Longer life

The synthetic rope is suitable for long-term decoration of your exterior. You can choose the synthetic hemp rope for a natural effect guaranteed.

Polyester ropes have excellent abrasion resistance, very good knot holding and low elongation.

Polyester rope is water repellent and do not lose their strength when wet. It is non-floating. It is resistant to moisture.

Density: 1.38

Polyester has excellent UV resistance. It is ideal for long-term outdoor exposure.

Polyester fiber is resistant to mites, bacteria, mold, mineral and organic acids, oxidants and diluted alkalis.

It is sensitive to strong alkalis, some phenols, benzyl acetate and nitrobenzene.

The thermal properties of polyester ropes are as follows: 

• Critical temperature: ± 180°C
• Melting temperature: ±  260°C
• Smell of hot oil with flame, black smoke
• Flame-retardant

Historically, "halyard" is the maritime name for a braided rope generally used to hoist a barge, horn or sail.

Now, the name "halyard" has been generalized to all types of synthetic braided cord and its field of application has been extended to industry, events and crafts.

The core of a halyard is the cord inside the braid that allows it to be round and reinforced. Independent of the outer braid, it can be removed manually. The core can be braided or parallel.

Beyond its material (polyester, nylon, polypropylene, polyethylene), a halyard is defined by the braiding of its core.

• Halyard with braided core
• Halyard with parallel core
• Hollow halyard (without core)

A pre-stretched cord has undergone a factory pre-stretch process to greatly limit its elongation during use.

Thermofixing is a pre-stretch performed at 100°C to improve compaction and stabilization of the fibers. This process improves the mechanical properties and life of a rope. It is reserved for high-end ropes for demanding uses.
