Mibro twisted polypropylene rope is a versatile general-purpose utility rope that floats on water and resists rot, mildew, oil, gasoline, and most common chemicals. The UV-stabilized bright yellow construction provides high visibility for safety and easy spotting during marine, agricultural, and outdoor work. The three-strand twisted construction holds knots securely and splices cleanly for eye terminations or end loops.

• Diameter and length: 1/2" x 50 ft
• Safe working load: 420 lb (industry standard 10:1 safety factor)
• Floats on water - ideal for marine, dock, pool, and water rescue use
• Resists rot, mildew, oil, gasoline, and most chemicals
• UV-stabilized polypropylene for extended outdoor exposure
• Three-strand twisted construction - easy to splice, easy to knot
• Lighter per foot than nylon or manila for the same diameter
• Bright yellow for high visibility against grass, deck, and water
• Hank packaged for tangle-free pay-out and storage

1/2" is the heavy-utility tier - dock line for runabouts and small fishing boats, mooring pendant, heavy tarp lacing, securing oversized cargo, hauling lines on small construction jobs, and livestock work. Still not rated for towing vehicles or dynamic shock loads.

The 50 ft hank is sized for single-job tie-downs, garage and shop storage, one-tarp lashing, and short pickup-bed loads where you don't need a full reel.

Tip: Singe freshly cut ends with a lighter or match to fuse the strands and prevent unraveling. For load-bearing knots use a bowline, double sheet bend, or anchor bend - avoid square knots under load. Polypropylene weakens with prolonged direct sunlight (typically 2-3 seasons of continuous UV); inspect before each use for fuzzed strands, broken yarns, or a glazed surface and retire the rope if any of those are present.

Care: Coil loosely and store dry and out of direct sun. Do not use this rope on running winches or capstans - twisted polypropylene melts at low friction temperatures. Avoid loads exceeding the rated safe working load. Polypropylene shows little warning before failing under shock load, so size up a diameter if there is any chance of jerking or sudden impact.
