Maxi Flex is a high-strength combination rope made from co-polymer fibres. It floats, absorbs energy and provides good abrasion resistance, making it ideal for mooring lines and hawsers where controlled elongation is needed.
Designed for commercial mooring and towing, Maxi Flex blends high-tenacity polypropylene and polyethylene fibres. This combination creates a line that is lighter than nylon yet offers the stretch needed to absorb dynamic loads. Because it floats, Maxi Flex is easy to handle on the water, and the fibres are treated for resistance to UV and abrasion.
These characteristics make it a popular choice for barge mooring hawsers and industrial tail ropes. If you need a durable, energy-absorbing rope that balances strength, flexibility and buoyancy, Maxi Flex offers a dependable solution at a sensible price.
