Unitrex
Light and easy to handle rope but tough
Unitrex XS Max Wear has high strength retention in service, which is supported by field studies and our long-standing track record with Uniline polyester. Unitrex’s tough rubber layer protects its high-modulus Spectra core, and the outer jacket is saturated with urethane, making it the toughest Spectra rope you can buy. All of Yale’s parallel-core ropes are torque free, with bonded cores preventing contamination of the internal strength member. Unitrex XS can be quickly terminated and/or joined with a TechEye2 or TechJoin2.

** Working load is based on static or moderately dynamic lifting/pulling operations. Instantaneous changes in load, up or down, in excess of 10% of the rope’s rated working load constitute hazardous shock load and would void the normal working load recommendation. Consult Yale Cordage for guidelines for working loads and the safe use of the rope.
