OVERVIEW :

HP-Rope was incorporated in 1993, in Surabaya - Indonesia.
The company was founded by its principal owner, Mr. S. Woentono, who has over 40 years of experience in the yarn and cordage businesses.

As one of HAPETE's divisions, HP-Rope manufactures high quality braided ropes in various diameters, colours, materials and weaving types.

The main goal of the company is to provide customers with the highest quality cordage at a very competitive price. Specialty orders and request are treated with the same consideration as international standarts.

BRAIDED CONSTRUCTIONS :

Diamond Braid
Diamond braid is manufactured by weaving ends
of yarn over and under.
This pattern gives the cord a diamond pattren noticeable on the outside of the product.
Diamond braids can be made with a cente core (filler) of varying fibers, or can be coreless (hollow braid).

Solid Braid
Solid braid is very firm, round and tightly woven with a special lock-sticth construction which prevents unraveling when cut or torn.

Double Braid
When the ropes as well as the core are braided, the construction is known as "double braid" or "braid on braid. This is the strongest and most expensive of all ropes.

INFORMATION ABOUT MATERIALS COMMONLY USED :

Nylon
Nylon is the strongest of all ropes in common use and when stretched has a "memory" for returning to its original length. For this reason, it is best for absorbing shock loads, as is the case when lifting or towing. Nylon lasted 4 - 5 times longer than natural fibers because it has good abrasion resistance and is not damaged by oil or most chemicals. In addition, it has good resistance to ultraviolet deterioration from sunlight.

Polyester Filament and Spun Polyester

Polyester is used when a lower stretch factor is needed. It is very closed to nylon in strenght when a steady force is applied. It is equally resistant to moistures and chemicals and superior in abrasion resistance and resistance to sunlight.

Polypropylene
This material is very strong, economical with many uses. Because of its light weight, polypropylene is the only rope which floats. Its life can be extended by storing it away from direct sunlight. It is not as strong as nylon or polyester. Because polypropylene is less expensive than other fibers, it is the most popular all-purpose rope for the average consumers.

Cotton
Cotton is not as strong as the synthetic braided, but is used in many applications where superior knot holding is required.

Cordura
Cordura is a high quality and expensive material. This material is used extensively as high quality laces.
