Abstract
An improved safety mooring line of the type having an inner high stretch ety line and an outer high strength, low elongate synthetic fiber strength member also has an armor layer of a high strength, heat resistant synthetic fiber material braided over the safety line underneath the strength member. The armor layer is braided with a high braid angle so that it can elongate when the strength member parts, yet insulate the safety line from the heat and flailing ends of the strength member resulting from the released energy of parting.
