Description
 

     
  • 8-Plaited nylon rope
     eliminates some of the service problems associated with the 3-strand ropes.
     8-Plait uses 8-individual braided strands woven together that allow the rope
     to be relaxed. But, when under load, it tightens up to a firm lay. The higher
     the load the harder the lay becomes.

  •  
  • 8-Plait carries the same
     tensile strength as 3-Strand.

  •  
  • 8-Plait does not coil or
     create a "birds nest" in the locker like 3-Strand will. 8-Plait flakes and
     falls upon itself.

  •  
  • 8-Plait will not twist and
     knot up.

  •  
  • 8-Plait will not loop over
     onto itself.

  •  
  • 8-Plait has less stretch so
     it will not bury itself deep into the gypsy's grip when overloaded, which
     means less damage to the stripper when the windlass is abused or overloaded.

  •  
  • 8-Plait pays off of the
     windlass into the locker much like chain, allowing for better use of smaller
     locker designs.

  •  
  • 8-Plait is 80% less prone to
     becoming stiff when used in salt water than 3-Strand.

  •  
  • 8-Plait nylon rope is 1/3
     more absorbent than 3-Strand rope. More absorbent means more weight; more
     weight means better fall into the anchor locker.

  •  
  • 8-Plait should be soaked in
     water (salt or fresh - it does not matter) to pre-lubricate the rope so it can
     be used in the windlass initially. When rope is used dry and new, we have seen
     either slippage or sticking in the rope pocket of the gypsy. Once the rope is
     wet and used, it out performs the 3-Strand. The longer it is used the better
     it gets.
