This paper presents resultsfrom a series of ocean deployments designed to assess the impact of several variables on the strength retention of large diameter stranded high strength aramid fiber ropes used as low tension buoy mooring 1 ines, a severe exposure for ropes since they can be thrashed about i n the ocean essentially unconstrained.Nominal 100 ton break strength ropes were deployed for 13 weeks in both surface and subsurface buoy configurations using four constructional variants and several jacketing concepts.The results confirmed a degradation mechanism hypothesized for a previous mooring line and showed that good durability can be expected through use of preferred constructions, fiber compliance and attention to splicing and rejacketing over splices. Basic data are provided and guidelines established to achieve longevity i n this use.

The applicability of ropes in marine situations may be investigated by attempting to match the conditions of use with the properties of fibres. Five commonly used fibres (nylon, polyester, polypropylene, Kevlar and Spectra) are examined in this paper. Properties important enough to be taken into account are strength (dry and wet), weight, elongation, abrasion resistance, sunlight degradation, exposure to sea‐water components and cost. It is clear that all five fibre types have advantages and drawbacks, and that the one with the optimum ratio of performance at minimum cost is nylon. Under specific conditions of use, however, each of them may be preferred, and the recommended approach is to examine the conditions under which a rope will be used. By comparing these conditions with the specific properties of each fibre type, it is possible to decide the one that best fits the intended end‐use. The possibility of choosing blends to provide an enhanced performance is also available.
