Specially braided polyethylene rope – the superhero of the rope world!
Our polyethylene rope (specially braided) is the versatile superhero of the rope world. Made from polyethylene fibre, this rope is durable, lightweight, UV stabilised, water resistant and cost effective. The perfect choice of rope for high-volume users. Although polyethylene has a relatively low tensile strength, the fibre compensates by being extremely resistant to abrasion. Its UV resistance is outstanding and absorbs minimal moisture, making it ideal for outdoor use.
What makes polythene rope even more impressive is its lightness, which allows the rope to float in water. The rope is specially braided, which means it is easy to splice if necessary. You can easily pack them in your backpack for camping trips or keep it ready in your toolbox for quick fixes.
Whether you need a polyethylene rope for industrial use or for outdoor activities, this rope will be your reliable partner.
Do not use in temperatures above 80°C, as this may affect performance. The polythene rope has an elongation at break of about 20%. This means it will give a little before breaking, which can be advantageous in some situations.
