TERRALINE™ Duodec²
TERRALINE™ Duodec² Double braided 12-strand Polyester rope
Timm has produced great ropes since 1772, and we constructed the first polyester rope in 1952. Polyester is a particularly reliable fiber, and has proven to be the most durable of the conventional fibers used in ropes.
The engineers at Timm have managed to design a unique double braided, 12-strand polyester rope, which delivers over twice the strength of conventional polyester ropes–with a breaking strength 150% above ISO standard.
Rope testing with DNV GL – at the Ormen Lange testlab in Norway also proved that the subsea breaking strength (MBL) transcends the MBL from the standard ISO 2307 dry test procedure.
The peak performance of the Terraline
Duodec is obtained mainly through two key elements:
1. Super HT polyester bers
2. Unique 12-strand MaxLoad design
– twisting and laying of yarn and strands
The Timm engineers have combined the experience from Acera™ high performance HMPE ropes, with an innovative “twist” of the traditional 12-strand rope construction. This MaxLoad design is based on a set of unconventional yarn twist/strand laying/ rope design ratios, and the use of new tools for simultaneous tensioning of all laments, yarns and strands respectively.
