Our very own Seasteel Rope, popular with our commercial fishing customers as a creel rope, is renowned for its very high abrasion resistance, thus assuring long life. Its performance is almost equal to that of comparable nylon ropes, especially when wet, at roughly one-third of the price. The rope is also completely silent when running over blocks.
"Seasteel Rope offers up to 40% higher breaking strain than a standard polypropylene rope and up to 70% higher breaking strain than polyethylene rope."
A rope with medium-firm lay, the fact that Seasteel is simple to splice only adds to its already substantial attractions. This rope has been used throughout the years for a number of applications, however, we have found it is most commonly used for potting as a running line, or as a mooring rope. Nevertheless, it is also used for trawling, netting, industrial slings, fish farming, net making and cable drawing.
