NCROPE electric traction rope is designed for power line stringing, cable pulling, and telecommunication installation. Made from high-strength UHMWPE fibers, with optional polyester covered protection, our electric traction ropes offer exceptional tensile strength, lightweight handling, and superior abrasion resistance, making them an ideal replacement for traditional steel wire ropes in modern electrical construction projects.
As a professional electric traction rope manufacturer, NCROPE provides reliable, durable, and safe traction solutions for global power and infrastructure industries.
Electric traction rope is a high-strength synthetic rope specially developed for pulling and stringing conductors, cables, and optical fibers in electrical and communication projects. Compared with steel wire rope, electric traction rope offers higher strength-to-weight ratio, improved safety, and easier handling during installation.
Modern electric traction ropes are commonly manufactured from UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) fibers, which provide outstanding mechanical performance while remaining extremely lightweight.
##Electric Traction Rope Applications
Our electric traction ropes are widely used in:
Used for pulling overhead conductors and ground wires in high-voltage and ultra-high-voltage power line projects.
Ideal for pulling heavy power cables through ducts, tunnels, and underground pipelines with reduced friction and damage.
Ensures smooth, safe, and efficient pulling of fiber optic cables over long distances.
Suitable for traction operations in railway catenary systems and other infrastructure construction.
Ultra-high tensile strength
Extremely lightweight (floats on water)
Low elongation under load
Excellent fatigue and chemical resistance
For demanding working environments, NCROPE offers polyester covered electric traction ropes, which provide:
Enhanced abrasion resistance
Better UV resistance
Longer service life during repeated pulley operations
Structure: UHMWPE load-bearing core + braided polyester protective jacket
Below are typical specifications. Custom sizes and strengths are available upon request.
| Diameter (mm) | Breaking Strength (kN) | Material | Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 – 6 | 7 – 18 | UHMWPE | Light cable pulling |
| 8 – 10 | 35 – 60 | UHMWPE / Polyester Covered | Power line stringing |
| 12 – 16 | 90 – 160 | UHMWPE / Polyester Covered | Heavy-duty traction |
| 18 – 20 | 200 – 310 | UHMWPE | Long-distance pulling |
Note: Specifications can be customized according to project requirements.
