PROtect CHAFE is a pressure sensitive tape using ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) film with a strong modified acrylic adhesive.

It has extremely low moisture absorbtion and very low coefficient of friction, is self lubricating and is highly resistant to abrasion (15 times more resistant to abrasion than carbon steel).

Typical applications:
- dragging lines over the deck
- mooring ropes
- mast and spreaders
- under the boom to protect it from spinnaker/gennaker sheet
- around the pad eyes for blocks and hardware
- daggerboards
- stanchions
- sails
