Secubond Heritage English▼ Menu Home Product Categories Fibre Types Polypropylene Webbing Polypropylene Webbing Polypropylene Webbing Polypropylene webbing is available in the widest range of colours and is excellent for producing webbing with coloured stripes. It is highly resistant to chemicals and a very popular fibre. However, it is worth noting that polypropylene is not as strong or as abrasion-resistant as nylon or polyester. Polypropylene is a versatile fibre which can lend itself to a wide range of applications. If neither high UV resistance nor high strength features are required, Polypropylene webbing is a cost-effective solution which can be used in applications such as luggage straps, bag handles, dog collars and leashes, to name just a few. Due to its many useful properties, Polypropylene is suitable for both commercial and leisure uses. Polypropylene is light and has a low water absorption rate which means it is highly buoyant. These features make it an ideal webbing for some Marine applications. Polypropylene can also be used in some lighter weight lifting applications. BOWMER BOND GENERAL PROPERTIES INFORMATION FOR: POLYPROPYLENE WEBBING POLYPROPYLENE: Relatively inexpensive but has excellent properties STRENGTH: High tenacity strength (Up to 7g/den) ELONGATION: Up to 25% at breaking point ABRASION: Good resistance to abrasion MOISTURE: Water-resistant and low water absorption COMBUSTIBILITY: Polypropylene is difficult to ignite and shrinks away from flame quickly. It can be difficult to add finishes to improve flame retardancy but success has been achieved using additives at the melt spinning stage. UV RESISTANCE: Has a high degradation rate when exposed to UV light, such as the sun. This makes Polypropylene unsuitable for uses that require long-term exposure to sunlight. CHEMICAL RESISTANCE: Polypropylene is inert to most common chemicals which means it is suitable for chemical resistance applications. INSECTS AND MICRO-ORGANISMS: Mildew resistant DYEING: Please contact us for the range of Polypropylene shades available.
