• A good point / • Strength and comparison list
The captain of operation for about 60 days to talk about the advantages
| 1 : Vectran fiber is 4 times stronger as strong as polyethylene fiber or nylon fiber.(see *1 and *2) 2 : Vectran fishing net dose not tear easily at the rock-rich bottom of the fishing ground.(see *1, *2 and *3) 3 : It is not necessary to spend much time in mending the Vectran fishing net because of its durability.(see *4 and *5) |
 |
| 4 : The knot of Vectran fishing net is much more durable than that of the other fishing nets.(see*3) 5 : Vectran fishing net keeps its shape for a long time because of low rate of its shrinkage.(Vectran fibers has little creep) 6 : Vectran fishing net is lighter than that made of polyethlene in the same net size and strength. It means that you can choose the thinner fiber net for the same applications.(see *1 and *2) 7 : You can drive your boat much faster when you operate Vectran fishing net because it dose not have the water resistance so much. 8 : You can operate Vectran fishing net easily at the bottom of the fishing ground because of its low density(1.41) when Vectran fiber is used in the lower part of the net. |
Physical properties of Vectran yarn in comparison with the others which has similar diameter

UHMWPE : ultra high molecuiar weight polyethylene.
Resistance for abrasion : each number in column shows the times at yarn breakage under the test of abrading the rotary specimen(with grinder).
