Dyneema® Max Technology
Lightweight Tycan® chains made with Dyneema have been hailed for their outstanding performance by users across a wide range of industries, from shipping, mining and oil and gas to commercial fishing.
TYCAN non-metallic link chains are made with Dyneema DM20 fiber based on Dyneema Max Technology, an innovative platform for extremely low-creep solutions.
The chains weigh up to 8 times less than conventional metal chains, meaning they are safer and far easier to handle as well as around 70 times less noisy in use, which further promotes safer and more user-friendly working conditions. Using TYCAN chains eliminates the dents and scratches to both cargo and vessel often caused by steel chains and translates in many cases to lower labor costs - fewer simultaneous hands needed, more efficient securing processes – and on ships, to shorter port stay times and hence lower costs.
