Utility Rope for General Tasks
This 3/8 inch diameter utility rope measures 50 feet in length and uses a diamond braid construction with twelve strands. A polypropylene core and cover provide consistent handling for lifting and pulling jobs. The rope is supplied in a hank format with plain ends and a strand core design.
Replaces Worn or Undersized Lines
When an existing rope shows fraying, stiffness or a lower working load limit, this rope restores safe capacity at 120 pounds. The jump is worth it if the current line cannot meet the 1,200 pound breaking strength required for the task. Static rope type means minimal stretch under load.
Limits of Static Polypropylene Rope
The construction does not elongate at ten percent of minimum breaking strength, so shock absorption is negligible. Polypropylene degrades with prolonged ultraviolet exposure and is not suited for dynamic climbing or overhead lifting of people. Working load limit must not be exceeded.

Questions about this item
What diameter and length is the rope so I can check it fits my pulley or cleat?
The rope is 3/8 in diameter and 50 ft long, supplied in a hank format for easy handling.
How do I attach this diamond-braid polypropylene rope, and what common mistake should I avoid?
Tie a secure knot such as a bowline or figure-eight at the plain end; the mistake is relying on a simple overhand knot which can slip under the 120 lb working load limit.
When should I retire this 12-strand utility rope based on wear or UV exposure?
Replace the rope if the diamond braid shows broken strands, abrasion that reduces the 12-strand construction, or stiffness from UV degradation that affects the 1,200 lbf breaking strength.
