Twisted Polyester Rope

Polyester rope is similar in appearance to nylon rope, but is not quite as strong. This rope has less stretch than nylon, has excellent UV resistance, and will not turn yellow when exposed to the elements.

Available Lengths

This rope is available to U.S. Federal standard Mil-R-30500B. Most common put-ups are 600′ and 1200′ spools. Cut lengths, assemblies, splicing, and dyeing are also available.

Common Applications for Twisted Polyester Rope

Twisted polyester rope is used in a variety of different uses including:

  • Antenna Guy-Line Rope
  • Tug Rope
  • Barge Tow Rope
  • Rigging Rope
  • Tree Rope
  • Safety Rope
  • ...and much more!
