Manufacturer part #: Vectrus 1/8"
Vectrus has a 12-strand Vectran construction, coupled with an integral Maxijacket HP coating, is designed to work in place of Spectra-based lines that don't meet low-creep demands. Eliminates low stretch, and has a self-supporting strand twist level that maximizes longevity. It has no moisture gain and negligible creep. Vectrus exhibits outstanding sunlight resistance and no moisture weight gain-at a fraction of the weight of wire.
Applications: Running backs, halyards and control lines.
Construction: 100% Vectran (LCP-Liquid Crystal Polymer) Single Braid. Maxijacket High Performance (HP) coated to enhance abrasion reisistance.
Specific Gravity: 1.40.
