STS-HSR ropes are constructed using a precisely controlled process which utilizes the ideal balance of temperature and tensioning thanks to uniform tension, uniform heating, and the minimized rotation of the rope during the entire heat-setting process. The process of making this rope takes full advantage of the creep-ability of HMPE ropes' shorter fibers which allows longer fibers to bear some of the load thereby creating a load that is much more balanced. On a microscopic level, the process straightens molecular chains for higher specific tensile properties.
