Manila: Made from the finest Abaca fiber available. Excellent resistance to sunlight, low stretch, and easy to tie a knot. Good surface abrasion resistance.

Polypropylene: A lightweight material with good strength and great versatility. It floats, is resistant to rot, oils, gasoline, most chemicals and is waterproof.

Nylon: High elasticity allows absorption of shock loads which would break other types of rope. Nylon is resistant to rot, oils, gasoline, grease, marine growth or most chemicals. High abrasion resistance.
