Polyester vs. Nylon Webbing Awareness:
Many commercial companies use nylon for their jacklines. There are many reasons why we have chosen to provide polyester and not the more common nylon (nylon is also commonly known as polyamide) webbing.
First, polyester does not absorb water like nylon. Nylon is known as a hydrophilic material and will absorb up to 10-20% of water by weight. When this occurs, nylon logically becomes heavier, stretches more readily and becomes noticeably weaker in overall strength.
Second, polyester does not stretch like nylon. When a heavy load is exerted onto a nylon material (such as webbing) it can stretch upwards of 10-14% (whereas polyester will only stretch between 1-3%). That 10% might not sound important however, if your jackline is 38-feet long (and experiences a heavy loading situation) that means the nylon jackline might conservatively stretch upwards of 3-feet 10-inches.
Lastly, our USA sourced webbing has an astonishing 9,800-lb. minimum breaking strength. Compare that with many so-called commercially available jacklines that only have a breaking strength of between 2,000 – 5,000-lb. This webbing comes with an engineered edge guard to prevent the onset of chafe.
Note: The percentages listed above may vary by specific material characteristics. The values given are considered conservative, legal, averages for publicly published material data available.
