Spectra Sewn Slings

Spectra webbing is the preferred material for manufacturing lightweight sewn slings for rock climbing and mountaineering. We stock it in the 15 mm width, which is durable and facilitates sewing.

Lightweight and very strong
Webbing imported from the USA, sewn in New Zealand
Complies with EN 566
Colours may vary in availability - usually green, yellow, orange, and black
Minimum strength 22kN

Spectra is the Honeywell brand name for a modern fibre called UHMWPE, a high-tenacity type of polyethylene. It has extremely high tensile strength - about twice that of nylon, and a lower specific gravity than water (it floats).

Negative properties in a climbing context are that it has extremely low elongation and a low melting point (about 150 C).

It it difficult to dye and so is usually white or a dull grey. The colour in spectra products generally comes from nylon yarns that are woven in with it to improve the integrity of the weave.
