Manufacturer part #: STS Heat Set Dyneema 3mm
Manufacturer part #: STS Heat Set Dyneema 3mm
The rope made of HMPE (high modulus polyethylene) fibers is heat-treated, under tension, at temperatures greater than 100å¡C / 212å¡F. At a microscopic level, this process causes the molecular chains to be oriented such that they are linear, thus ensuring greater load bearing capacity. The STS process under exposure to heat increases the rope's breaking strength by achieving a uniform distribution of the HMPE fi ber lengths throughout the rope's longitudinal profile.
Features
Higher Breaking Strength at same Diameter Same breaking strength at smaller diameter and less weight Low Constructional Elongation Longer Service Life due to closed rope structure, even with a cover Stable Rope Cross-Section

Advantages Of A Rope With STS Technology
Higher breaking strength at same diameter Same breaking strength at smaller diameter and less weight Low constructional elongation Longer service life due to closed rope structure, even without cover Stable rope cross-section Advantages Of The STS Technology
TEUFELBERGER STS ropes are constructed using a precisely controlled process which utilizes the ideal balance of temperature and tensioning thanks to:
Uniform tension Uniform heating Minimized rotation of the rope during the process Uniform fiber lengths in the rope's longitudinal profile Molecular chains are oriented in the direction of the force Improved degree of utilization of the fibers contained in the rope Higher breaking strength Stable rope cross-section Closed rope structure

Easy to order -- impossible to see delivery
The ordering process was easy and smooth. However, there is very little communication as to the status of the order or even an ETA once the order is placed. I have to check the site manually to see if the item has been shipped.
