Revolutionizing Lifting: Hercules & Applied Fiber Partnership

Hercules Crane & Lifting Supplies has strategically partnered with Applied Fiber, the global leader in synthetic fiber termination systems. This collaboration aims to revolutionize our offerings in custom-engineered rope solutions, providing our clients with advanced, reliable, and efficient lifting and rigging products.


Why Choose Applied Fiber's Termination Systems?

Applied Fiber's termination systems are renowned for their innovation and superior performance in the industry. Here are compelling reasons to consider these systems for your lifting and rigging needs:

  1. Enhanced Strength and Reliability: Applied Fiber's technology enables the creation of high-strength synthetic ropes with socketed terminations designed to maximize load-bearing capacity and durability. This ensures that the ropes can withstand demanding operational conditions, providing a reliable solution for critical applications.

  2. Lightweight and Flexible: Synthetic fiber ropes terminated with Applied Fiber's systems are significantly lighter than traditional steel wire ropes. This reduction in weight enhances ease of handling and installation, leading to increased operational efficiency and reduced labor costs.

  3. Corrosion Resistance: Unlike steel, synthetic fibers are resistant to corrosion, making them ideal for use in harsh environments where exposure to moisture and chemicals is common. This extends the

  4. lifespan of the ropes and reduces maintenance requirements. 

  5. Safety: The lightweight nature of synthetic ropes reduces the risk of injury during handling. Additionally, in the unlikely event of a failure, synthetic ropes do not exhibit the dangerous snap-back characteristics associated with steel wire ropes, enhancing overall safety.

  6. Customization: Applied Fiber offers custom-engineered solutions tailored to specific industry requirements. This flexibility ensures that clients receive products optimized for their unique operational needs.
