Double Braid Nylon Rope
Ravenox Double Braid Nylon Rope
Double braid nylon rope is the backbone of the yachting and marine industries. Ravenox is proud to be a top manufacturer of the highest quality 100% nylon rope for the private and commercial sectors as well as the United States Military. Double braid cord is versatile and 15% stronger than twisted nylon ropes, which are already very strong. Perfect for boat docks, mooring lines, anchor lines, and boating. This cordage is also ideal for horse halters and reins, dog leashes, interior design, and visual displays in theaters or commercial spaces.
With a wide variety of diameters and pre-cut lengths to choose from it’s easy to find the strongest, most versatile rope that’s perfect for you and any application you have. The combination of high-grade marine nylon, special torque-balanced construction, and a unique stabilization process produces a long-wearing, easy-to-handle line that resists kinking. Soft on your hands and with slightly less stretch than a three-strand line, it still significantly reduces shock loads on equipment. This rope is also treated with an exclusive marine coating and manufactured with precise tension for strength, abrasion resistance, and reduced shrinkage.
Ravenox is a certified Service-Disabled-Veteran-Owned American Small Business that backs all of its’ products. If you’re not 100% satisfied, you’ll get your money back. Ravenox rope meets the rigorous manufacturing and testing procedures set forth by the American Cordage Institute and we are proud to be 1 of only 29 manufacturers in the world that helps set the standards in rope manufacturing.
