Why Choose a Nylon Core with Polyester Cover?
The nylon braided core provides excellent elasticity and stretch recovery, helping absorb dynamic loads caused by waves, swell and vessel movement.
The polyester outer cover offers excellent UV resistance and very good abrasion protection, helping extend rope service life in demanding marine environments.
The combination creates a strong, flexible and shock-absorbing mooring rope.
