Text Box: Both polypropylene and nylon ropes are ideal for the marine, petrochemical, agricultural and industrial environment. Both are stronger than manilla and neither will rot.

 

 

Text Box: Derived from oil, polypropylene is one of the lightest and most economical ropes made. The elasticity is 7.5% at maximum working load. Supurbly resistant to abrasion, mildew and most acids and alkalis (including petroleum products). The rope floats.

 

 

Text Box: One of the strongest and most elastic rope fibres available, nylon absorbs greater shock load than any other fibre with an elasticity of 14% at maximum working load. Resistant to acid, alkali and organic solvents including petroeum products. Can be stored wet.
