DynIce™ tug ropes offer a revolutionary alternative to traditional steel wire ropes, providing the perfect combination of strength, durability, and performance. Lightweight and long-lasting, these ropes are engineered for fast and efficient harbour towing operations, enabling smoother, quicker manoeuvres.
Made from Dyneema®, DynIce™ tug ropes outperform conventional synthetic ropes in terms of strength—surpassing even steel in tensile strength. Whether for long-distance or open sea towing, our high-performance towing line system delivers superior reliability.
These ropes are not only lightweight and buoyant, but they also offer excellent handling ease, low elongation, and minimal backlash, making them easier to work with. With low energy storage and high breaking strength, DynIce™ tug ropes enhance safety and performance on every tow.
Tug pendants
Pendant Ropes – Tailored to Your Needs
We offer single leg pendants and grommet pendants in two advanced materials to suit your specific requirements. Choose from DynIce™ for low elasticity and exceptional strength, or Nylex™ for high elasticity and superior shock-absorbing properties, ensuring optimal performance for every application.
Nylex™ Shock Absorber – Optimising Load Control
The Nylex™ shock absorber is an elastic nylon rope designed to effectively limit peak load during operations. Available in two robust constructions—conventional 8-strand or the more advanced double-braided 32-strand—this rope provides flexibility and strength where it’s needed most.
In compliance with DNV regulations, the breaking strength of the Nylex™ shock absorber is required to be 1.5 times that of the main towing line, ensuring reliable protection and performance in even the toughest conditions.
