LDMAXULTRA SBR

Anti-Snap Back UHMWPE Mooring Rope (Low Recoil SBR Rope)

UHMWPE mooring rope with Anti-Snap Back (SBR) design is engineered to significantly reduce recoil energy in the event of rope failure, improving safety in high-tension marine operations.

Compared to conventional synthetic ropes and steel wire ropes, this low rebound mooring rope minimizes snap-back risk, helping protect crew and equipment during mooring operations.

LDMAXULTRA®SBR is a high-performance 12-strand UHMWPE rope, featuring an integrated Anti-Snap Back system.

Construction: 12-strand UHMWPE rope with 3-strand nylon energy-absorbing core

This anti snap back mooring rope features a single braided UHMWPE construction combined with an inner nylon core designed to absorb energy.

The integrated low recoil system reduces snap-back force and rebound distance upon breakage, significantly improving safety in mooring operations.

What is anti-snap back rope?
Anti snap back mooring rope is designed to reduce recoil energy when a rope breaks. It helps minimize snap-back distance and improves safety during mooring operations.

Why Snap-Back is Dangerous in Mooring?
Snap-back occurs when a mooring rope under tension suddenly breaks and recoils at high speed. This can cause serious injuries or fatalities. Using low recoil UHMWPE mooring rope is an effective way to reduce this risk.

How to reduce snap-back risk?
Using anti snap back mooring rope with energy-absorbing design can significantly reduce recoil force.

Why is low recoil rope important in mooring?
It helps prevent serious injuries caused by sudden rope failure, which is one of the biggest risks in marine operations.

Is UHMWPE rope safer than nylon rope?
Yes, UHMWPE rope with anti-snap back design offers significantly lower recoil compared to traditional nylon ropes.
