KARAT® MAXI S.b.D has become standard terminology in high quality mooring applications. Very high strength/weight ratio allows substantial size reductions and ease in handling, as well as providing excellent overall economy. The KARAT® MAXI PLUS S.B.D. ropes have the same properties but offer a higher LDBF and much better abrasion resistance. S.b.D. in the above ropes is intending for reducing rope recoil (snap back) and it is not influencing rope’s performance indicators. Karat Maxi S.b.D. is in accordance with CI 1500:2015 and in the intend of CI 1502:2006.
