SURE

Excellent multi-layer spooling characteristics and resistance


to crushing are essential for reliable rope performance in
these applications where load is applied directly to the reeled
rope on its storage winch which can create considerable
radial forces, crushing the underlying lower layers.

The right rope lubrication is vital to reliable performance,


thats why we tailor the lubrication applied in the manufacture
of our Hydra range to deliver optimum lubrication over a
wide range of operating temperatures including elevated
temperatures typical to heave compensation systems.

High performance offshore heavy-lift and subsea


deployment ropes from Bridon, a brand proven in the most
demanding global Oil & Gas applications.
