Allied Fibers

Marine ropes get wet. It's expected.

And if they lose some strength under- water, well that's expected too.

What's not expected is that ropes manufactured with Allied Fibers keep working strong even when soaking wet.

Select Caprolan 2000 SeaGard™

Nylon—advanced nylon with the propri- etary SeaGard™ finish that offers opti- mum wet strength. Choose new im- proved, lightweight, high strength A.C.E. polyester with Seagard™ for higher abrasion resistance than ever before.

Allied Signal wishes to acknowledge the leading manufacturers that utilize these

Allied Fibers in their rope manufacturing.

New England Ropes

Samson Ocean Systems, Inc.

Yale Cordage Inc.

For optimum marine performance characteristics, select Spectra"—ligh than water, ten times stronger than st< with the lowest moisture absorption ai highest abrasion resistance of any hie modulus fiber.

Allied Fibers stand up to the most punishing abuse in every marine rope application: fishing, towing, mooring, docking and anchoring.

Expect the unexpected from

Allied1 Fibers—the best wet workers you can get.
