Nylon is widely regarded as one of the strongest and most popular ropes on the market.
is used for a variety of applications ranging from marine to general and towing.
Its toughness and resistance to abrasion make it the go-to material for such activities. In fact, it's deemed so durable that it can last for extended periods of time, even in high levels of UV exposure.
However, it's essential to bear in mind that Nylon loses about 15% of its strength when being wet, which is an important consideration to make when choosing the suitable rope for your needs. In this regard, other factors such as tensile strength and flexibility should be taken into account.
Another characteristic of Nylon that should be noted is that it is a very dense material, which means it sinks in water. This feature is often undesirable in some cases and should be considered when choosing rope material for a particular activity.
For applications where heavy loads need to be pulled, braided ropes come highly recommended.
Unlike three-strand ropes, they don't coil and unravel when subjected to strong forces, making them ideal for pulleys and similar uses.
Our extensive stock includes several braided Nylon ropes, including the Braided Nylon Dockline, 8 Plait Anchor Rope, and Nylon Flat Braids, all of which are perfect for a broad range of applications and preferences.
