• Corrosion resistance to withstand salt water pool treatment
• UV resistance for durability over years of use
• Weight reduction vs. traditional metal to reduce shipping
costs and simplify installation
• Field tested for 3 years to prove Polystrand
solution provides excellent UV, creep, and
corrosion resistance
• Reduced weight by 50% compared to metal
• Rolled product enabled standard shipping
vs. coiled steel sidewalls that require LTL
delivery

Overview
• FIBER-LINE® extrusion is the process of
forming a polymer jacket of various thickness
around a core of high-performance fibers
• Fiber core can be parallel, twisted, or in
rope form
• Polymer jacket selected to optimize flex,
chemical, temperature, & UV resistance
Key Features
• .50mm – 30.00mm size capability
• Protect the core from mechanical,
environmental, and chemical damage
• Extend life of cable or strength member
• Enhance flame & chemical resistance
• Improve UV resistance
• Many polymers available
