Product Detail

A very strong multipurpose rope which is comfortable to handle and easy to coil.

The ropes that we supply have a matt cover which, although more expensive than shiny polyester ropes, considerably adds to comfort and grip and it also helps to ensure that knots do not accidentally work loose.

Polyester is marginally less strong than nylon but it does have better chafe resistance, less stretch, and it does not weaken when wet. Synthetic ropes are not ideally suited for permanent dead hanging of equipment in theatres as the rope would weaken if brought into contact with hot lamps or if a fire occurred.

The 8 mm x 8 plait rope is the ideal hauling line for 3Way Track, Unitrack, Unirail, and Halls T70 tab tracks. Use 6 mm x 8 plait in Halls T60 tracks. Flints can eye splice the braided ropes.

Conformity: BS 4928 DIN EN 697.
