What is Kevlar?
Kevlar is a polyamide synthesized by Stephanie Kwolek. Its fibers consist of long chains of polypaphylene terephthalamide, a molecule that supports high temperatures with which it is possible to construct light equipment, resistant -5 times stronger than the steel - and to which it does not affect the corrosion to them.
The Kevlar in simple terms for us is a synthetic polymer with high tensile strength and elasticity and withstands great temperatures. In the cable there are a series of yellow threads that protect in the environment of the fiber optic. This is used precisely to protect the fiber, to absorb the mechanical friction tension (N) when passing the saber through a pipe and the external pressure (N) when handling the cable.
