Why Choose Nylon Plus?

Flexibility & Elasticity
Nylon is one of the most flexible material types and has more elasticity before breakage as compared to UHMWPE materials.

Size & Shape
When compared to UHMWPE materials, Nylon can have a higher level of shrinkage over the life of the net.
This can be offset with Resin application or Badinotti’s industry-leading AB-Lock® product. AB-Lock® ensures higher resistance to abrasion and lower shrinkage throughout the cycle.

Sinking advantage
Nylon fiber has a sinking characteristic which means that a lead line should not be required to maintain the cage shape. This would also depend on the traditional weight method utilized.
