Twisted Polyethylene Twine

Twisted Polyethylene Twine

  • Manufactured with high quality fiber
  • Ultra Violet (U.V.) inhibitors and stabilizers are added to our resin to reduce damage caused by sunlight
  • Polyethylene twine is less elastic than nylon- will not stretch as much under tension
  • When our twine is extruded (manufactured) the color is added to the resin which results in a deeper, richer color that does not fade quickly
  • The filaments in polyethylene are larger in diameter than nylon or polyester filaments and are more abrasion resistant (will not wear or chaff when rubbed against rocks or sand)
  • Will not rot
  • Is not affected by most chemicals, fuels, grease, or marine growth
  • Polyethylene will stay tied into a knot much better than polypropylene
  • Polyethylene twine is normally less expensive per pound or kilo than nylon or polyester twines
  • Ideal for use in fish and sport netting, gardening, trot lines, or anywhere a light weight, relatively strong, and inexpensive twine is needed
