Compared to a wire rope net with e.g. 200 x 200 mm mesh opening with a rope diameter of 8 mm, the SPIDER^® spiral rope net offers considerable advantages:

• Efficient installation
  The SPIDER^® rolls with a length of 20 m can be installed in an easy and efficient way.
  
  
• Simple force-locked connections
  Force-locked shackles are used to connect the SPIDER^® panels to each other. No laborious inter-weaving with ropes is necessary.
  
  
• Optimal force transmission due to adapted system spike plates
  The system spike plate specially adapted to the SPIDER^® system allow for an active and thus ideal fastening of the net against the surface to be protected.
  
  
• Flexible nail pattern
  The SPIDER^® system allows for a flexible nail pattern which can be perfectly adapted to the local geometric and static conditions.
  
  
• Long lifetime
  The SPIDER^® spiral rope net consists of high-tensile steel wire of diameter 4.0 mm protected against corrosion by GEOBRUGG SUPERCOATING^®. Compared to wire rope nets with individual wire diameters of 0.6 mm - 1.0 mm, a considerably larger amount of corrosion protection coating can be applied to the SPIDER^® wire of 4 mm diameter.
