Case Study – High Strength Guy Lines

The Challenge

Cancord was approached by a company looking to replace the galvanized aircraft cables they traditionally used as guy lines for their towers. They wanted to explore fiber rope options.

The Criteria

  • Superior UV and weather resistance
  • High strength
  • Low elongation
  • Good knot-ability

The Solution

Cancord developed a line of low elongation, high strength guy line ropes using a combination of fibers braided in such a way as to minimize elongation, while providing exceptional UV and weather resistance. These ropes were designed with exceptional knot-ability and a high visibility tracer for identification.
