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

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.

Good buy.

It was strange enough to do the job of supporting my radio antenna.

strong but a little soft compared to other rope

great cord for the price

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.

General purpose hanging of antennas, pulleys and suchlike.

Just as expected. I am putting up a 160 meter full wave horizontal loop antenna using 8 tree supports. Only time will tell if it lasts like the miles of Dacron rope I have bought over the years.

Good and strong perfect for the job I had purchased it for
