Manufactured from fibres obtained from the leaves of the Agave Sisalana plant. A tough, versatile fibre ideal for general purpose ropes used in mining, trucking and general industrial applications. Ideal for applications not requiring high strength or great elasticity.
Typical Applications
- Truck Ropes
- Slings
- Driving Ropes
- Capstan Ropes
- Halters
- Nets
- Barrier Ropes
- Rope Handles
- Tug-o-War Ropes
Properties
- High strength when dry but reduced marginally (10-15%) when wet
- Approximately 10% elongation dry and 12-13% wet
- Low energy absorption (do not stretch significantly under load)
- Good abrasion
- Does not float in water
- Strong resistance to most chemicals and are not affected by volatile petroleum solvents, mineral oils and alkalis
- Sensitive to mineral acids, paints, detergents, chemical salts and very humid or dry atmospheric conditions.
- The rope is combustible
- Absorb water readily and fibres lose strength when wet

Manufactured from fibres obtained from the leaves of abacca plants, Manila is the strongest of the natural fibres and results in hard wearing, low stretch, general purpose ropes which are superior to Sisal Ropes in their resistance to weathering fungal attacks and moisture.
Typical Applications
- Slings
- Nets (Safety/Cargo)
- Capstan Rope
- Driving Ropes
- Rope Ladders
- Guy Ropes
Properties
- High strength when dry but reduced marginally when wet (less than sisal ropes however)
- Approximately 10% elongation dry and 12-13% wet
- Low energy absorption (do not stretch significantly under load)
- Good abrasion and resist external wear well
- Does not float in water
- Strong resistance to most chemicals and are not affected by volatile petroleum solvents, mineral oils and alkalis
- Sensitive to mineral acids, paints, detergents, chemical salts and very humid or dry atmospheric conditions. Prone to fungal attacks, however its resistance is higher than Sisal
