Solid Braid Polyester Rope 1000 ft
This 5/16 inch solid braid polyester rope provides 1000 feet of continuous length for lifting, pulling and conveying tasks. The low stretch construction delivers reliable performance for hoists, starter ropes, anchor lines, camping and flagpole use. It is supplied new from T.W. Evans Cordage Co.
Working Load Limit 272 lbs
The rope carries a working load of 272 lbs which sets the practical limit for any lifting or pulling application. Low stretch polyester reduces elongation under tension but does not eliminate it, so sudden shock loads can still exceed the rated capacity. Buyers who need a higher working load or a safety factor for dynamic loading should select a different specification.
Resistance to Rot, Mildew and Chemicals
Polyester construction resists rot, mildew, abrasion, water, gas, grease and oil without degradation. This makes the rope suitable for prolonged outdoor exposure and contact with common automotive or industrial fluids. Buyers who require a rope that floats or offers higher UV resistance than standard polyester will need an alternative material.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 1000 ft length or a shorter roll for a flagpole?
The 1000 ft solid braid polyester rope is ideal for flagpoles; its low stretch and rot resistance suit long fixed runs, and you can cut the exact length you need from the reel.
What does the 272 lb working load mean when I’m hoisting a load?
The 272 lb working load is the maximum steady force the rope should carry in normal use; stay below that figure and allow a safety margin for shock loading or knots.
How does the solid braid construction affect abrasion resistance on a winch or pulley?
Solid braid polyester resists abrasion, water, gas, grease and oil, so it withstands repeated cycling over sheaves and winch drums without the cover wearing through.
