3/16 Inch Braided Nylon Rope
The Zoro Select 12U273 is a general purpose utility rope built with a braided nylon and polyester construction. It measures 3/16 inch in diameter and comes in a 100 foot length packed in a bag. The rope has a 12 strand braided core and plain ends for versatile use.
Suits light duty lifting and pulling tasks
This rope suits users needing a lightweight line with a 60 lb working load limit and 727 lbf breaking strength. It is not for buyers who require a higher working load limit for heavy lifting. It is not for applications needing a larger diameter or longer continuous length than 100 feet.
Check load requirements and chemical warning
Verify that the 60 lb working load limit meets the demands of your intended lifting or pulling jobs. Confirm the 33 percent elongation at 300 lb is acceptable for your application. Note the product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
What hardware do I need to attach this 3/16 in braided rope for lifting?
Use shackles, hooks or thimbles rated for at least the 727 lbf breaking strength and 60 lb working load limit; the plain ends accept standard rigging hardware.
Will the 100 ft length and 33 percent elongation at 300 lb affect my existing winch drum capacity?
The 100 ft of 3/16 in diameter rope fits most small winch drums; 33 percent stretch at 300 lb means you gain usable length under load but must allow extra drum space.
How can I verify the 12-strand braided core is performing correctly after installation?
Apply a known load up to 60 lb and measure stretch — approximately 10 percent elongation at 10 percent of breaking strength confirms the nylon-polyester core is working as specified.
