Are Polypropylene Ropes Strong?

Polypropylene(PP) ropes are used in fishing, shipping, heavy industrial handling and are also used as mooring ropes. They are made of high strength polypropylene yarns and polyamide core. This enhances the chemical and mechanical characteristics of the ropes. This makes for its use in multiple settings.Qualities of PP ropes, as they are popularly known as, are:

• PP Ropes are resistant to weathering, repeated bending, temperatures above  -40 and below 80 degrees.

• PP ropes do not exhibit side effects of salts, oils, liquid fuels, organic solvents etc.

• PP ropes do not absorb water or moisture and do no sink.

• They can be washed and therefore can be used for packing and transporting dirty goods.

• The Polyamide Core enhances the tensile strength of the rope multifold. On removal of load, the tension in the rope is decreased.

• PP ropes have general purpose uses.

There are advantages of using PP ropes. 

• They are very strong and resistant to abrasion

• They are bright. The colors make it a very good choice for use in low-lit conditions.

• PP ropes can float in water. Hence, they can be used around water.

• The diameter of the ropes can vary and therefore can be easily knotted and stored.
