Sea-Dog Twisted Nylon Dock Line 301116020WH-1, 5/8 in x 20 ft, White, 15 in Eye
The Sea-Dog 301116020WH-1 is a 5/8 inch by 20 foot dock line built from 100% premium twisted three-strand nylon. Three-strand nylon construction gives the line superior stretch to absorb the shock loads created by boat wakes and harbor surges, helping protect cleats, chocks, and hull hardware from sudden jerking loads while the boat is tied up. The line also offers superior abrasion resistance to counteract chafe against pilings, cleats, and rub rails during normal dockside use. Each line is finished with a hand-spliced eye using five tucks for a secure, reliable termination, and the line is yacht whipped at both the bitter end and the splice point to prevent fraying. The white finish matches light-colored hulls and fender lines for a clean look at the dock. This dock line is rated for a working load of 900 to 1980 pounds and a breaking strength of 4500 to 9100 pounds, making it suitable for securing boats of a size appropriate to this line diameter and length at a dock or mooring.
