Power Bands
At Ibex Marina Ropes, our Power Bands are built for endurance and performance. Whether you are launching, restraining or absorbing serious kinetic force, these assemblies offer unmatched strength and reliability in a highly compact form. They are a mainstay of the defence industry, and widely used within sports and leisure too.
Power Bands have stainless steel, galvanised steel, nylon or aluminium thimble(s) and are bonded with two servings of whipping to ensure strength under heavy loads. We can also supply with soft eye terminations, double-whipped or crimped and covered.


We can match the configuration to your requirements, working from your drawings or developing a complete solution in-house. That means you benefit from assemblies tailored to your load case, your mounting setup, and your operating environment.
Example industries include:
- Defence equipment applications
- Catapult launchers
- Resistance training
- Film & Theatre, including stunt work
- Zip wire braking systems
- Offshore anchoring systems
- Inflatable safety
- Leisure activities
Depending on the specific application at hand, these assemblies typically make use of Heavy duty (BS3F70), light duty (BS3F71) (EN14960-4), Superstretch or commercial shock cords.
