Polyester fibre is versatile and can be used in a variety of applications where UV stability, strength or flame resistance may be required.
It offers good tensile and relatively low elongation, which are advantageous properties for mechanically stressed environments.
Polyester webbing can be found on: climbing harnesses, medical lifting slings, life jacket harnesses, etc…
