Strong and durable, nylon is resistant to mildew and mold, and most acids, alkalis, marine growth, gas and oils. Stretchy enough for absorbing shock loads, but returns to its original length when not under load. Twisted construction makes it easy to splice and keeps it flexible. Nylon rope is an ideal choice for many applications that require both strength and stretch: sling rope, tow rope, anchor lines, net rope, tie down rope, and safety line rope.
