Sea-Dog Premium Double Braided Nylon Dock Line, 3/8 Inch x 10 Feet, Black
This Sea-Dog Premium Dock Line is a 3/8 inch by 10 foot length of 100% double braided nylon rope built to secure boats to a dock, piling, or cleat. Double braided nylon construction combines a braided core and braided cover for a rope that is strong, resists abrasion, and has enough stretch to absorb the shock loads of wave action and wind without snapping taut against cleats and hardware. One end features a professionally spliced soft eye measuring 12 inches, ready to drop over a piling or cleat without any additional tying or hardware. Both the bitter end and the splice point are yacht whipped, a finishing technique that locks the braid in place so the rope will not fray or unravel with repeated use. This line is finished in black, giving it a low profile, understated appearance on deck or dock. It carries a working load limit of 825 pounds (376 kg) and a breaking strength of 3800 pounds (1880 kg), giving boat owners a clear reference point when matching line size to vessel weight and mooring conditions. Sea-Dog packages this dock line in a re-closeable plastic clamshell for retail sale and long-term storage between uses. It is a straightforward, ready-to-use mooring and docking line for recreational boats.
