Product catalog summary
Introduction
Gleistein's high-performance ropes are designed with Dyneema® cores, offering the strength of steel ropes while maintaining the lightweight and handling characteristics of textile ropes. These ropes feature a protective cover to enhance stability and longevity, with the Dyneema® core ensuring minimal elongation and maximum break load.
XCover System Overview
The XCover System comprises two core types and 20 rope variations. The core is a 12-strand braid made of Dyneema® SK75, with MegaTwin Dyneema® for double-braided construction and MegaMooring Dyneema® for larger diameters. HS versions with heat-set cores are available for increased strength and compactness.
Core and Cover Specifications
Dyneema® HS cores provide ultimate strength and minimal elongation. Covers made of Dyneema® SSC and Polyester SSC offer compactness and abrasion resistance, with Dyneema® being extremely light and Polyester adding weight. The Plus cover is buoyant and robust.
Performance Data
Detailed tables in the document specify break load, break length, diameter, and weight for various rope configurations, highlighting high break loads and low elongation.
Applications and Benefits
The ropes are ideal for various applications, including salvage operations, due to their excellent UV resistance, abrasion resistance, and buoyancy. The SnakeSkin Cover (SSC) is a notable feature, providing robust and stable construction.
Specifications
The document details the specifications of various ropes, focusing on construction, materials, and performance characteristics. Key materials include Dyneema® and Polyester, known for their strength, abrasion resistance, and UV stability. The ropes feature a SnakeSkin Cover (SSC) with a braided cover of 32 single braids with 24 strands each, ensuring a compact and stable cross-section.
Performance Characteristics
- Enhanced abrasion resistance and UV stability.
- Some ropes are buoyant, while others are not, depending on material composition.
- Suitable for use as salvage ropes and on winches.
Materials and Construction
- Dyneema®: Offers extreme strength, minimal elongation, and is extremely light and abrasion-resistant.
- Polyester: Provides excellent abrasion resistance and more weight.
- Gleistein Plus Yarns: A polyolefin/polyester mix offering good abrasion resistance and durability.
Applications
The ropes are particularly suited for use in salvage operations and on winches, with specific designs tailored for different environments and requirements.
Technical Data
The document includes detailed tables with technical data such as break load (both spliced and linear), break length, diameter, and weight per 100 meters. These metrics are crucial for selecting the appropriate rope for specific applications.
Recommendations
Choose the rope based on specific application requirements, considering factors like buoyancy, abrasion resistance, and UV stability. The document emphasizes selecting the right material and construction type to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
Procedures and Standards
The document references the spliced break load and break load in accordance with DIN EN ISO 2307 standards, providing break length measurements in spliced conditions.

XCover System Maßgeschneideter Schutz für High-Tech-Seile Hochleistungstauwerk von Gleistein bietet die Leistung von Stahlseilen bei textilen Handling-Eigenschaften und geringstem Gewicht. Grundlage dafür ist die Faser Dyneema®, hochmodulares Polyethylen vom Technologieführer DSM Dyneema. Für einen stabilen Seilquerschnitt und lange Lebensdauer wird das hochwertige Material mit einem festen Schutzmantel umflochten. Die Anforderungen an den Last tragenden Kern aus Dyneema® sind dabei immer klar: minimale Dehnung, maximale Bruchlast. Der Mantel hingegen ermöglicht die Abstimmung des Seils auf unter­...

XCover System-3

Tailor-made protection for high-tech ropes High performance ropes from Gleistein provide the strength of their steel counterparts but at a fraction of the weight and with the handling characteristics of textile ropes. The basis for this are Dyneema® fibres made of high modulus polyethylene from technology leader DSM Dyneema. Ensuring rope stability and long life, a pro­ tective cover is tightly braided around the high quality material. The demands the load-bearing Dyneema® core needs to fulfil are thereby always clear: minimal elongation, maximum break load. In contrast, the cover ensures the...
