What they are

Flat webbing-type straps made from high-tenacity polyester yarn tendons, fully encased in a linear low-density polyethylene sheath for protection.

Key features

• Design life: 120 years

• Excellent resistance to chemical, biological, UV, and physical damage

• High tensile strength with low creep

• Surface texture provides strong friction with soil for pull-out resistance

• Commonly used with precast concrete panels or wire mesh cages

Strength grades (color coded)

• 30 kN – White

• 40 kN – Red

• 50 kN – Brown

• 60 kN – Green

• 75 kN – Orange

• 85 kN – Blue

• 100 kN – Yellow

Typical specs

• Roll length: 100 meters

• Width: 85–90 mm (depends on grade)
