Low-Stretch Flexible Rope—Not for Lifting

White

Black with Reflective Strands

Rope has a strand core, which allows it to bend freely. The core is polyester to give the rope stretch resistance.

Note: The safety factor for capacity is 12:1.

Nylon covers resist rot and mildew. Acrylic-coated covers have a clear acrylic on the outside to reduce wear. Polyester covers resist UV rays, rot, oil, and gas.

Low-Stretch Wear-Resistant Rope—Not for Lifting

Choose this polyester rope for applications that require minimal stretch, such as in tie-down applications. A braided cover protects the braided core from wear during use. The rope resists UV rays, rot, oil, and gas, and will not lose strength when wet. It knots easily and does not rotate under load.

Polyurethane-coated rope is good for high-friction applications since its coating gives it increased wear resistance.

Note: The safety factor for capacity is 12:1.

Low-Stretch Easy-Splice Rope—Not For Lifting

Often used to tie items down, this rope is made of polyester, which resists stretching. The braided construction and hollow core make it easier to splice than other rope, so you can add a fitting or connect rope together. A polyurethane coating gives this rope wear resistance for high-friction applications.

Note: The safety factor for capacity is 12:1.

Wear-Indicating Low-Stretch Rope—Not for Lifting

A red neoprene layer shows through the cover of this rope when it’s worn, indicating that it’s time to replace the rope. Made of polyester, this rope stretches minimally, so it is often used to tie items down. The cover also resists UV rays, rot, oil, and gas. A latex coating further protects against wear in high-friction applications. With a strand core, this rope bends freely. It will not rotate under load.

Note: The safety factor for capacity is 12:1.
