Fineline Nylon Dockline Collection — NZ Made Marine-Grade Strength You Can Trust
When it comes to mooring and marine anchoring, reliability and performance are everything. The Fineline Nylon Dockline Collection offers a premium range of New Zealand–made black nylon docklines, engineered for strength, flexibility, and long-lasting durability in harsh marine conditions. Available in 100m reels or custom-cut lengths, and in diameters from 8mm through to 24mm, these ropes are the ultimate solution for both recreational and commercial marine users.
Built Tough for Marine Environments
Each Fineline Nylon Dockline is manufactured in New Zealand using 100% UV-stabilised nylon, ensuring resistance to long-term sun exposure and the corrosive effects of saltwater. Unlike cheaper synthetic alternatives, Fineline’s high-grade nylon retains its strength, elasticity, and smooth handling even after years of service.
The black outer cover not only gives the rope a clean, professional appearance but also enhances UV protection and resistance to abrasion. This combination of durability and sleek design makes Fineline docklines a trusted choice among marine professionals, yacht owners, and boat builders across New Zealand.
Performance That Outlasts the Elements
Nylon is well-known for its exceptional shock absorption and elongation — making it the ideal rope material for mooring lines, sea anchors, and other fixed marine applications where load fluctuation occurs. Fineline’s docklines have been tested for breaking strain with both ends spliced, ensuring they meet stringent safety and strength standards.
Compared to polyester, nylon offers superior tensile strength and flexibility, providing the reassurance you need when docking or anchoring in rough conditions. Even as the rope wears, it maintains excellent abrasion resistance, and though it may stiffen slightly over time, its integrity remains dependable under demanding use.
Easy Handling and Professional Splicing
Fineline’s nylon docklines are designed to be easy to splice and handle, whether you’re working with smaller 8mm lines or heavy-duty 24mm ropes. The high elongation allows for gentle energy absorption, reducing strain on cleats, bollards, and hardware. Whether you’re outfitting a small vessel or a large commercial craft, the smooth feel and easy handling make Fineline ropes a pleasure to use every day.
Each dockline is marine-quality tested and designed for simplicity in both setup and maintenance. The rope’s structure makes it resistant to kinking, and it remains supple enough to coil and stow neatly after use.
