King Chain 1/4" x 1000' Solid Braid White Nylon Rope

Description

Nylon is the strongest synthetic material used for DIY ropes. Smooth braid has a lock-stitch construction which results in a firm, round rope. Smooth Braid will keep its round shape under load and works very well in blocks and pulleys. Nylon has a "memory" for returning to its original length, making it best for absorbing shock loads. It's the best option for hauling, lifting and towing. Nylon will last four to five times longer than natural fibers because it has good abrasion resistance, good UV resistance, and it is not damaged by oil or most chemicals. Do not use for overhead lifting. Never exceed the Safe Working Load (SWL).

Features

• Nylon is the strongest synthetic material for commonly used DIY rope.
• Nylon has significant elasticity and is best used for absorbing shock loads such as experienced when towing.
• Nylon rope absorbs the shock, stretches, and then returns close to its original length once the load has been removed.
• Nylon has good abrasion resistance, does not float, and will absorb water when wet.
• When nylon is wet it will shrink slightly and lose 10% to 15% of its strength.
• Nylon is ideal for use as a tow rope, anchor line, dock line, safety lines, and tie-downs.
• Safe Working Load (SWL): 90 lb
