Ship Used 8 Strand Nylon Marine Mooring Rope 48mm/64mm/80mm/96mm With 220m Length Each End with 1.8 Eye
An 8-Strand Nylon Rope is a premium synthetic rope known for its exceptional strength, elasticity, and durability. Its unique construction and material make it the go-to choice for the most demanding applications where shock absorption and reliability are critical.
It is often referred to by its construction name: 8-Strand Plait or 8-Strand Braided.
The "8-strand" refers to its specific build: eight individual bundles of nylon fibers are intertwined in a plaited (braided) pattern. This is different from a standard double braid.
Firm and Dense: The plaiting creates a very tight, firm, and round rope that is highly resistant to crushing forces.
Kink-Resistant: Unlike 3-strand twist rope, it will not kink or hockle, even after repeated cycles of tension and slack.
Excellent Handling: It remains flexible and is easy to coil and handle, despite its density.
Balanced Construction: Because it's plaited, it has no core or cover. This means it has a consistent feel and performance throughout its diameter and doesn't suffer from jacket slippage.

The nylon material gives this rope its legendary performance traits:
High Elasticity (Shock Load Absorption): This is nylon's most famous property. It can stretch up to 15-30% of its length under load. This allows it to absorb massive amounts of energy, smoothly decelerating loads and preventing catastrophic failure. This is irreplaceable in mooring and towing applications where sudden jerks occur (e.g., waves, wind gusts).
Extremely High Strength: Nylon has one of the highest tensile strengths of all common synthetic fibers, making it incredibly strong for its diameter.
Excellent Abrasion Resistance: It is very tough and resistant to wear from friction against docks, rocks, and other surfaces.
Impact Resistance: It can withstand repeated high-stress impacts without degrading, much better than less elastic fibers like polyester.
Weather and Rot Resistance: It is resistant to rot, mildew, and many chemicals, though it should be protected from prolonged UV exposure.
This rope is built for heavy-duty, high-stress scenarios:
Mooring and Dock Lines (Most Common Use): Its incredible elasticity makes it perfect for absorbing the surge and shock of a boat moving in waves and wind, protecting the boat's cleats and deck hardware from excessive force.
Towing and Rescue Lines: Used by professional tugboats and rescue services because its stretch provides a smooth, controlled pull and prevents snapping under sudden strain.
Anchor Lines (Rode): While chain is preferred near the anchor, an 8-strand nylon rope is an excellent choice for the main rode on smaller to medium-sized vessels due to its shock absorption when the boat pitches in a swell.
Industrial Applications: Used in logging, construction, and anywhere a high-strength, elastic line is needed to manage dynamic loads (e.g., lifting certain loads, securing equipment on trucks).
