Applied Fiber manufactures lightweight cable, custom engineered, to meet the strictest weight and strength requirements. Using the most advanced synthetic fiber materials available, Applied Fiber produces lightweight cables for mechanical and electromechanical applications that are unequaled in weight savings, strength, and quality.

Applied Fiber lightweight cable solutions take advantage of new age fiber properties maximizing strength and performance while minimizing weight through its cutting-edge termination and processing technologies. Pound-for-pound, synthetics are orders of magnitude stronger than their steel counterparts. In addition, some lightweight cables can be made from fibers that are of a specific gravity less than one, which produces buoyancy and allows the cable to float. See below for a detailed listing of the specific gravities of various synthetic fibers from which Applied Fiber manufactures lightweight cable, and their comparison to metal alloys.
