3 strand twisted Polysteel™ rope

Polysteel™

Our 3 strand twisted Polysteel™ rope is an ideal substitute for the yellow poly ropes that are so prevalent in the market today. While the yellow poly ropes are very susceptible to UV degradation and tend to have lower strength and poor handling characteristics, Polysteel ropes have much better UV resistance and excellent strength on a pound for pound basis.

  • 40% stronger than standard polypropylene (monofilament)
  • 20-30% lighter than nylon with less stretch
  • UV resistant
  • Spliceable
  • Superior handling – softens with use – does not harden with age
  • No loss of strength when wet
  • Floats

Note that this rope is designed for general usage, and is not suitable for fall protection. Please refer to our Polysteel™ Safety Lines in our Lifelines, Rescue & Technical catalogue for rope that is suitable for use in life safety applications.
