Braided Polyethylene Twine

Made from high-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
Ideal for use in fish and sport netting. Works well in applications that require a lightweight, low-stretch, very tough twine that will float.
