We make a variety of Ripcord variations suited to your need. We recommend our unique "PF" coating which has been proven to provide excellent abrasion resistance for the ripcord. Our PF coating, which originally comes from abrasion resistance needs in the meat packing industry, may allow you to decrease the size of your ripcord and still get the same or better performance than an uncoated or wax coated ripcord, even in armored cable applications.

 

Each of these are also available with, or without our Ultrabloc water-swellable coating for excellent water blocking. Here are some examples:

 

Protos (aramid):

Protos Ripcord PF 1000x1

Protos Ripcord PF 1000x1x2

Protos Ripcord PF 1000x1x3

Protos Ripcord PF 1500x1

 

Gral (polyester):

Gral Ripcord PF 1000x1x2

Gral Ripcord PF 1000x1x3

Gral Ripcord PF 2000D

Gral Ripcord PF 3000x1

PF Coating also provides a superb payoff package (because it is a bit slicker than uncoated or waxy materials) and may allow you faster line speeds due to improved payoff.
