Sea-Dog Twisted Nylon Anchor Line 5/8 Inch x 200 Feet White with Stainless Steel Thimble, 301116200WH-1

The Sea-Dog Twisted Nylon Anchor Line (301116200WH-1) is a 5/8 inch by 200 foot white three-strand rope built for anchoring and rode applications where shock absorption and durability matter. It is constructed of 100 percent premium twisted three-strand nylon, a material chosen for anchor rode because it stretches under load to absorb the sudden shock loads that occur as a boat pulls against its anchor in waves and current. The line has a medium lay with a soft feel, making it comfortable to handle and easy to work with when hauling anchor by hand.

One end is professionally spliced with five tucks around a 304 stainless steel thimble, which protects the rope from chafe and wear at the point where it connects to an anchor shackle or chain, and preserves the line's strength at that connection point compared to a plain loop. The opposite end is yacht whipped at the bitter end to prevent the rope from fraying or unraveling. The line carries a working load limit of 980 pounds and a breaking strength of 9100 pounds. The full 200 foot length ships packaged on an easy to dispense spool, so it can be paid out and stowed without tangling.

This anchor line is a general-purpose marine rode suited to boats that call for a 5/8 inch diameter line, and it can also serve other dock and utility towing tasks where a twisted nylon line with a stainless thimble end is needed.
