Soft fibre ropes
It is as strong as manila. Italian hemp is generally graded as the best quality hemp. Hemp rope is soft and lacking stretching qualities.
Jute ropes are weaker than hemp. This is mainly used for making the cores of wire rope.
Ideal for use as a sewing twine due to high resistance to abrasion.
This fibre makes an excellent rope for use as a power drive. Very soft rope and easily soiled. |
