Cargo Control
Solid braided nylon, supplied on a reel you can pull from directly. The strands all travel the same way round and alternate between the outside and the inside of the rope — a lock stitch construction, which is why it has a smooth surface, small vertical picks, and cannot be unravelled even when you cut it.
The strongest rope on this page size for size, and the one that stretches most. That stretch is useful for absorbing a shock and is exactly what makes it dangerous under a heavy pull — a nylon rope stores a great deal of energy and gives it all back at once if it parts. For a pulling job, use the low-stretch polyester instead.

This is utility and pulling rope. None of it is rated for overhead lifting — if the job is a lift rather than a pull or a tie-down, call us and we will put you on a rated sling instead. Cut to length from the reel in Hatfield.
Looking after a rope
Retire it when
- The outer fibres are cut, pulled or badly fuzzed
- There is a soft spot, a flat spot, or a change in diameter
- The lay has opened up or the braid has picked
- It has been shock loaded or run over
- It is glazed, melted or discoloured by heat or chemicals
- A natural fibre rope smells of mildew or powders inside
In service
- Keep it off sharp edges and use a sleeve where you cannot
- Never stand in line with a rope under tension
- Knots cut the strength of a rope, often by half
- Coil it, do not kink it, and store it dry and out of the sun
- Never use it overhead as a sling
