Braided High Tenacity Polyethylene Twine
- High-Strength
- Very Tough
- Made with superior quality fiber
- Our fiber is loaded with ultraviolet inhibitors and stabilizers to reduce damage caused by sunlight
- When our twine is extruded (manufactured) the color is added to the resin which results in a rich, deep color that will not fade quickly
- Braided Polyethylene is very abrasion-resistant to reduce damage when rubbed or scraped against rocks, sand, etc.
- Lightweight – will float in water
- Will not rot
- Very little elasticity or stretch
- Not affected by most chemicals, fuels, grease, or marine growth
- Polyethylene will stay tied into a knot much better than polypropylene
- More expensive than standard braided polyethylene
- Ideal for use in fish trawls or any other application that that requires a very strong, very tough, twine with excellent abrasion-resistance that will float
