YALON
Yalon is a double-braided rope constructed
of a nylon core and sleeve. Yalon offers
high energy-absorption, high strength,
and controlled stretch. Yalon exceeds the
strength requirements of MIL-R-24050E.
Yalon is easily spliced and can be purchased
with our optional Maxijacket Coating for
enhanced abrasion protection or to color
code lines for a given application.

* Knots and abrupt bends significantly reduce the strength of all ropes and lowers maximum working load.
** Working load is based on static or moderately dynamic lifting/pulling operations. Instantaneous changes in
load up or down, in excess of 10% of the rope's rated working load constitutes hazardous shock load and
would void normal working load recommendation. Consult Yale Cordage for guidelines for working loads
and safe use of rope.

Energy Absorption
The colored area under the
curve represents the rope's
ability to do "work" and is
expressed in foot-pounds per
pound of rope in tension.
■ Green working 796 ft lbs/lb
■ Red ultimate 11,871 ft lbs/lb
Dielectric Strength: The
maximum allowable
leakage for clean, dry
Yalon is 2 Milli Amperes
when tested at 90KV per
ASTM 1701-05 "Routine
Production Test".
Absorbed and entrained
moisture or impurities will
increase ropes conductivity
dramatically.
