3/16 inch Black Dacron Polyester Rope - 500 Foot Spool | Solid Braid - Industrial Grade - High UV and Abrasion Resistance - Low Stretch

Exactly as advertised, Perfect for my application,

I used this cord to hang a 105 foot long wire antenna with an open wire feed line hanging from a center insulator. The cord is attached to two trees at about 40 to 50 feet. It has held up well for several months without stretching, or breaking, and we have had some high winds. I used the 3/16 inch diameter cord.

Muy buen producto …

I am using this for guy lines for an antenna pole. It is perfect. Very strong. Handles high winds easily. Would buy again.

Long ago I bought a spool of 3/16 black Dacron cord off another online market for $50. It was awesome stuff. I used it for guylines on a radio tower. Its been out in the sun for a year now and looks new. I recently found myself in need of another spool of 3/16 black Dacron cord. This stuff looked like what I needed. I was sorely disappointed when I got it. The braid is quite loose. This is definitely not low-stretch. Only the very outer layer is braided. The core is white and felt super cheesy. This stuff wasnt in the same class as the other stuff I have. Sent back and got a refund.

I use this rope to hang wire antennas and to guy vertical pole-type antennas for my amateur (ham) radio station. Being Dacron (which comes from wood, believe it or not) it far outlasts nylon and doesnt stretch anywhere near as much. Ill be a repeat customer !! Mike/

What I needed

Very durable and lasts for years. I purchased this on the advice of a fellow ham radio operator and it works great after it finishes stretching from the weight of the antenna over a few months. Ive had a 130 feet (39.63 meters) doublet antenna fed through a Balun Designs model 4115t 4 to 1 5K rated current balun between RG8 coaxial cable and 450 ohm ladder/window feed line and Ive had to tighten the ropes 3 times in a year. So far it has finished stretching now and is very stable and very strong as well. Very 73 = hamspeak for Best Regards from amateur radio station KU4GW.

Great rope for outdoors. I use it string all my antennas.

Not hard to work with, and plenty left over for other tasks. Well see how durable it is in the desert sun after a few years. So far (1mo), no color or fibrous transfer to clean clothes. I might have gone one gauge thicker for the clothesline just because, but this thickness is roughly equivalent to what it replaced and works fine.
