Polypropylene Rope 8mm x 300m 3-Strand Twisted White General Purpose Marine Agriculture Construction DIY

With a breaking strength of approximately 700 kg, this 8 mm polypropylene rope delivers exceptional load-bearing capability for demanding tasks. Its 300-meter length ensures you have ample rope for large projects, while the 3-strand twisted construction provides a classic balance of strength, flexibility, and easy handling.

Overview

Engineered from high-quality polypropylene, this rope is non-absorbent, floats on water, and resists rot, mildew, and chemicals. It performs reliably in temperatures from -20°C to +80°C, making it suitable for marine, agricultural, construction, and DIY applications. The white colour offers high visibility, and the moderate elongation (15-25% at break) absorbs shock loads effectively.
