Polypropylene Rope.

Relatively inexpensive compared to other ropes, polypropylene rope floats and absorbs very little water. When wet it is flexible and does not shrink. It's highly resistant to acids, alkalis and oils.
 

Polypropylene Twine.

What ever your need for twine, be it for packaging or just general use. We've got it here! All our twines come standard in a white colour. We can supply other colours, please email us for a quotation!
 

Baler Twine.

Manufactured using highly sophisticated extrusion technology and twisting machines. All our Gold Strand baler twines are manufactured from a single tape, using only the highest quality raw materials. This guarantees a precise & uniform twist in the twine.
 

Other.

From lorry ropes to lashing ropes, the ideal category for carrying or holding down loads!
 

Sisal Rope.

3 Strand sisal rope. Holds knots well, low stretch, does not melt on contact with hot wires. Absorbs water. Even though man-made fibres are stronger than natural fibres, they deteriorate in bright sunlight and melt at a lower temperature than the natural fibres
 

Sisal twines/strings.

An entirely natural product manufactured from the fibres of the Agave, sisal twine/string is a very strong and versatile product.
 

Tug of War Ropes.

The game Tug of War has been around for centuries, it is known that it had been practised in ancient Egypt & China and in local villages in Korea it was used to settle disputes for centuries. Our tug of war ropes are made out of high quality manila & sisal rope and are great for competitions or just messing around with your friends.
 

Natural Manila Rope.

Manila rope is made from a hard natural fibre. It has excellent resistance to sunlight, little stretch and good knot-holding ability. Manila rope must be stored dry to avoid mildrew, and chemicals will cause it to deteriorate.
 

Nylon Rope.

White 3 Strand nylon rope. Nylon is the strongest of all ropes in common use. When stretched it has a "memory" for returning to it's orginal length. For this reason it is the best rope for absorbing shock loads, as is the case when lifting or towing. Nylon lasts 4-5 times longer than natural fibre ropes because it has good abrasion resistance & is not damaged by oil or most chemicals. Like manila, nylon has excellent resistance to ultraviolet deterioration from sunlight, referred to as "U.V. stability".
 

Polyester Rope.

This high strength heavy synthetic fiber is resistant to ultraviolet deterioration giving it greater weather resistance than either nylon or Manila fiber. Due to polyesters low water absorbency, only slight strength loss is experienced when wet. Polyester does not have the stretch and elasticity of nylon. Polyester is superior to nylon with respect to cycle loading and abrasion. Good for high friction uses like marine running, rigging and stringing line.
 

Hempex/Hardy Hemp Rope.

Hempex/Hardy Hemp or Polyhemp as it can be known was developed to allow the use of synthetic rope in situations that demanded a traditional look and feel. It is made from polypropylene and looks and feels very much like traditional hemp rope but with none of the disadvantages. It is popular for decking and gardening projects, hand rails and is suitable for children's play equipment.
 

Shock Cord.

10mm Shock cord or 'Bungee', 101 onboard uses. Elasticated shock cord for tensioning, positioning and retrieving.
 

Anchor ropes,Anchor rope/line/warp.

Garden Swing

Garden Swing.

Hand carved in the UK from Green oak, this beautiful wood garden swing will look amazing in anybody's garden. The green oak is chosen for it's longevity & ease of maintenance and will age beautifully if left outside, naturally silvering over time & may even cup or twist slightly, which will add to its unique character. The standard or 'uncarved' swing has a natural plain finish but we also offer a version with the phrase 'Just a Bit of Fun' carved into the facia. Available in 3 kits depending on the diameter of your bough. This swing is superbly engineered and is very straight-forward to install. All you need to do is chose a bough that is strong enough & level & between 8 feet or 2.5 metres & 15 feet or 5 metres from the ground, then loop the spliced hempex rope around it. The seat itself is supplied with 2 x 5 metre lengths of Hempex rope which is spliced & securely knotted-off under either side of the seat. You then simply thread the ends of each of these 5 metre lengths through the open loop hanging down from each of your bough loops & double it back on itself. Next, you level-up your seat & secure the lengths by tightening the heavy duty metal clamps (2 for each rope) & cut-off any excess rope and heat seal the rope ends with a lighter to seal them & to stop them from fraying.

Anchors, Chains & Accessories.

The Basic rules of a good anchoring system Never overlook the importance of every element in your anchoring system : it is only by selecting top quality elements & assembling them correctly together that you obtain a perfectly reliable anchoring. Chain Diameter must be generous & length at least 5 times the boat length (See table) Rope Opt for polyamide/nylon, which provides good abrasion & tension resistance, with a good stretching capacity (18 to 25%) to absorb the surges that waves impact on the anchor.
