POLYPROPYLENE ROPE is a lightweight, cost-effective synthetic fiber rope made of polypropylene (PP). Known for its excellent buoyancy, chemical resistance and mildew resistance, this rope is particularly suitable for water applications and short-term high-intensity operations. The low density of polypropylene fibers allows them to float on the water for a long time, making it an ideal choice for water rescue, fishing and water sports. At the same time, POLYPROPYLENE ROPE has good flexibility and abrasion resistance, making it suitable for industrial lashing, agricultural use and daily fixing needs. Although its strength is slightly lower than nylon or polyester ropes, its economy and versatility make it a widely used general-purpose rope.

Q1: Can POLYPROPYLENE ROPE be used outdoors for a long time?
A: It can be used outdoors for a short period of time, but long-term exposure to the sun will accelerate aging. It is recommended to choose UV-resistant models or store them in a cool place.
Q3: Is it suitable for mountaineering or high-altitude operations?
A: Not recommended. Its strength and weather resistance are lower than nylon/polyester ropes and are limited to light use.
Q3: What is the maximum load-bearing capacity?
A: The load-bearing capacity is low. Please refer to the diameter specifications for specific information. It should be much lower than the breaking strength when used.
Q3: Will it absorb water?
A: It almost does not absorb water. It still maintains its performance after being wet, but long-term immersion may affect its life.
Q3: How to identify high-quality polypropylene ropes?
A: The surface is smooth and burr-free, there is no obvious deformation when stretched, and it has uniform dyeing and texture.
