36mm Natural Manila Rope (220 Metre Coil)
Grade 1 Natural Manila Rope is a heavy-duty, strong rope designed to meet the needs of various trades. Renowned for its flexibility, sunlight resistance, and durability, this rope is ideal for garden and timber work, swings, ladders, climbing ropes, and lawn or deck edging. With very little stretch, it provides stability for numerous applications. Unlike natural sisal, Grade 1 Manila Rope is pre-soaked in oil, eliminating the need for additional treatment and making it a preferred choice for decking projects and handrails.
Made from natural fibres, Grade 1 Manila Rope absorbs water and dampness, causing the rope to swell. As all natural fibre ropes shrink in length and expand in girth when wet, it is advisable to order an extra 15% in length to accommodate this change. RopeServices UK is available to assist you in determining the correct length for your specific needs. The natural fibres also ensure the rope’s UV resistance, allowing it to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight without damage.
Despite its many benefits, the natural fibres of Manila rope can be rough on the hands, especially with extensive handling, so wearing gloves is recommended to avoid splinters. The soft laid structure offers some degree of softness, but the inherent coarseness of the fibres remains. This versatile rope is commonly used in various applications, including decking, climbing, assault courses, decorative purposes, pet toys, and theatres. Its combination of strength, durability, and natural aesthetic makes Grade 1 Natural Manila Rope a highly functional and attractive choice for both practical and decorative uses.
Enhance your projects with the reliability and rustic charm of Grade 1 Natural Manila Rope, sold by the coil to meet your exact requirements.

Please note that all weights and breaking loads provided are approximate. The breaking loads may vary depending on how the rope is finished. It is imperative to subtract 10% from the breaking load for each splice made in the rope. Additionally, please be aware that weights can fluctuate, particularly with natural products, due to differences in manufacturing processes and materials utilised.
Characteristics Of Natural Rope
Natural rope is a type of rope made from natural fibers, such as sisal, manila, cotton, and jute. It is known for its strength, durability, and natural beauty. However, when natural rope is used outdoors and exposed to moisture, it can shrink, expand, and rot.
When natural rope gets wet, it can absorb water and cause the fibers to swell. This can cause the rope to expand and become more difficult to handle. In some cases, the rope can even become permanently deformed. On the other hand, as the rope dries, it can shrink and become more compact.
Therefore, if you plan to use natural rope outdoors, it is a good idea to allow for up to 15% extra length to account for any shrinkage or expansion that may occur. By doing this, you can ensure that you have enough rope to complete your project, even if the rope shrinks or expands slightly.
Moreover, when natural rope is continuously exposed to moisture, it can also start to rot. This can happen because moisture creates a favorable environment for bacteria and fungi to grow, which can cause the fibers to break down and weaken the rope’s overall strength.
To protect natural rope when it’s used outdoors, you can treat it with a decking oil. This type of oil is designed to protect wood and other natural materials from moisture damage, including rotting and warping. Before applying the oil, make sure the rope is clean and dry. Then, apply a thin layer of the decking oil using a brush or rag, covering all of the fibers. Allow the oil to dry completely before using the rope.
In summary, natural rope is a strong and durable material that can be used outdoors. However, it can shrink, expand, and rot when exposed to moisture. By allowing extra length and treating it with a decking oil, you can help protect the rope from moisture damage, extending its lifespan and preserving its strength and natural beauty.
