Questions we get asked
What is PP rope?
PP rope is manufactured from polypropylene, a lightweight synthetic material that absorbs very little water and normally floats.
What is Danline rope?
Danline rope is a common name used for firm polypropylene rope designed for marine, fishing, mooring and general commercial applications.
What is the difference between Danline rope and multifilament rope?
Danline or mono rope has a firmer and more rigid construction. PP multifilament rope is softer, smoother and more comfortable for frequent manual handling.
Does PP rope float?
Yes. Polypropylene is lighter than water, so PP rope normally floats. This makes it useful for fishing, boating and marine applications.
Does PP rope absorb water?
PP rope absorbs very little water. It remains relatively lightweight when used in wet environments.
Is PP rope resistant to rot?
Yes. Polypropylene does not naturally rot and is resistant to mildew, making it suitable for damp and outdoor environments.
Which PP rope should I choose?
Choose Danline rope when you need a firmer rope for mooring, securing and commercial marine applications. Choose multifilament rope when softness, flexibility and comfortable handling are the main priorities.
How long is a 100-yard roll?
A 100-yard roll is approximately 91.4 metres.
How long is a 200-yard roll?
A 200-yard roll is approximately 182.9 metres.
Can PP rope be used for mooring?
Yes, suitable Danline rope can be used for mooring. However, the correct diameter and rope must be selected according to the vessel, expected forces and verified safe working load.
Can PP rope be used outdoors?
Yes. PP rope is suitable for outdoor applications. However, prolonged exposure to sunlight can gradually weaken untreated polypropylene rope. Store it away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Can the rope be cut into shorter lengths?
Yes. The rope can be cut into shorter working lengths. The cut ends should be properly sealed or finished to prevent excessive fraying.
Can PP rope be used for lifting?
Do not use PP rope for overhead lifting, personnel support, climbing, fall protection or life-safety applications unless it is specifically rated and certified for that purpose.
How should PP rope be stored?
Store the rope clean, dry and loosely coiled in a shaded, ventilated area. Keep it away from sharp objects, direct sunlight and excessive heat.
When should the rope be replaced?
Replace it if you notice deep cuts, severe abrasion, melted areas, damaged strands, flattening, chemical damage or signs that it has previously been overloaded.
