UV Resistance 6mm/8mm 16 Strand PP Braided Rope with Customized Color for Marine & General Use

3. Common Applications

The floating property of PP dictates most of its uses:

• Marine & Water Sports:

  • Ski and Tow Ropes: The standard for water skiing, wakeboarding, and tubing. It floats, preventing it from getting tangled in the boat's propeller.

  • Dock and Anchor Lines: Especially where high visibility and flotation are desired.

  • Mooring Lines: For smaller boats.

  • Lifeline Reels: On pools and docks.

• General Purpose:

  • Utility & Tie-Down: On farms, in warehouses, and for general landscaping. Its easy handling and strength are valued.

  • Decorative: Often used for hay bales at autumn festivals because it's strong, cheap, and available in bright colors.

Summary
