I'm looking for an on-line source for rope. I'd like to find Samson Stable Braid or Arbor-Plex by the foot. I need 300 feet, which is not a standard putup. 73 - Jeff, WB2RUZ

Both nylon and poly rope will deteriorate with the Sun's UV. Nylon takes longer. I've had nylon ropes under my airplane for three or four years before they deteriorated sufficiently to replace. Poly

Hello Talkians; There is NOTHING wrong with using nylon rope. I have been using 3/8" nylon rope for 20 years in my tower and antenna installing and dismantling work. I use it on everything from Rohn

Same here. Right you are. I couldn't imagine working with a rope that doesn't stretch a bit! It would be like using wire-rope to install tower sections!73, Tom W8JI W8JI@contesting.com

Couldn't tell you. But none of the nylon rope I've every owned had problem being in the sun. I've got some over 20 years old that is still in good service. It is slightly stiffer, but very strong. Ar

I'm afraid there is a fundamental problem with using any stretchy rope as a load line on a tower. Many tower workers (including a friend of mine) have died because of this situation. With a safe but
