NIKA-Flex RSB (Reduced Snap Back) have been developed for maximum safety on-board due
to the specified construction engineered for reduced snap-back reaction.
The reduced recoil effect is accomplished with the use of an inner-braid rope structure that will
enable the restraining of snap-back release in case of partition. Due to the different elongation
properties of the primary rope member and the RSB member, the recoiling of the rope is
reduced, which increases the safety on-board.
The two-step partition of the rope is attributed to the RSB member that exhibits higher elongation and restraints the extreme snap-back effect when the rope is stretched to break.
Made from High Tenacity NIKA-Steel® and Polyester fibers
NIKA-Steel® fibers is a special polymer blend of:
Blended with a unique recipe, our materials result superior mechanical properties compared to conventional polypropylene fibers.The UV stabilization is included for increased protection againstsunlight degradation that normally affects all polymer materials.
Effective mixture of NIKA-Steel® with Polyester fibers
Standard or customized lengths
Standard lengths are 11m/22m (including the rope eyes) but other lengths are available upon request.
