RIT Safety Solutions Kevlar Tubular Webbing | 7/16th

The 7/16th Kevlar tubular webbing is not only light weight, but easily compactable which makes it ideal for multiple applications.

• 5,500 pound tensile strength
• 862° temperature rating
• When used for egress, tubular webbing must be accompanied by the RIT Descender
• Rope made from Kevlar is pound for pound five times as strong as steel and much lighter in weight
• Rope made of Kevlar is stronger, at the same weight, than nylon or polyester rope
• Rope made of Kevlar does not suffer shrinkage like most other rope made from organic fibers when exposed to hot air or hot water
• Rope made of Kevlar exhibits far less creep (lengthening of a material under constant load) than nylon or polyester
• Rope made of Kevlar is less apt to suffer stress rupture (sudden failure of a material when it is held under a load less than its tensile strength for a period of time)
• Rope made of Kevlar has excellent chemical resistance and heat resistance
