NYLON 3-STRAND TWISTED ROPE
It holds up well against damage from most chemicals, rot and mildew, including acids. It is more abrasion resistant, more resistant to damage from exposure to sunlight, stretches far less, and does not lose strength when wet as nylon line does. High strength makes this product popular with tree care contractors as hoisting rope and bull rope as well as safety lanyards, climbing rope and lifelines. Because of it's low stretch properties, it is a good stringing and winch line.
