Samson - Quantum 8                                             

    

 

QUANTUM 8 Product Code:863
Quantum 8 – the latest solution provided by Samson – was developed to meet customer requests for a light-weight, high-strength, torque-free rope that can float and grip a winch or capstan. Lighter and stronger than Proton-8, Quantum 8 is a unique upgrade. Utilizing Samson's exclusive DPX® fiber technology Quantum 8 has equal grip to Proton-8 – but unlike Proton-8, it floats. Samson DPX® yarn has proven to have the best abrasion and cut resistance of all high performance yarns, so rope durability is excellent. Quantum 8 has multiple marine uses. It can be used as a high-performance tug working line, a floating tug stern line, a typhoon mooring line, a vessel mooring line, or an offshore messenger or pick-up line. Quantum 8 has an orange urethane coating for high visibility as well as additional abrasion resistance. Standard Color: orange.
