Polyester Mooring Lines & Nautical Equipment

Yes, polyester rope is excellent for water and marine use. It offers outstanding UV resistance, minimal water absorption, high abrasion resistance, and low stretch characteristics that make it ideal for mooring, towing, and offshore applications in saltwater environments.

Our strongest polyester mooring lines offer breaking strengths up to 319,602 LBF, featuring 4-stage construction for maximum strength. These heavy-duty lines have diameters up to 4 inches and are engineered with excellent UV and abrasion resistance for the most demanding commercial marine and offshore applications.

Double braid polyester rope provides higher strength, lower stretch, and better abrasion resistance compared to 3-strand construction. It features a torque-free balanced design and superior handling characteristics, making it the preferred choice for demanding applications requiring maximum performance and minimal elongation, though 3-strand offers easier splicing and more economical performance.

Mooring line diameter depends on vessel size and weight, with larger vessels requiring thicker lines. Our polyester mooring lines range from 3/16 inch to 4 inches in diameter with breaking strengths from 1,128 LBF up to 319,602 LBF to accommodate various vessel sizes.

Yes, all our polyester mooring lines are available in custom lengths, colors, finishes, and put-ups to meet your specific operational requirements. With thousands of SKUs available and domestic manufacturing in USA and Canada facilities, we offer tight lead times and personalized configuration options through our experienced technical support team.

With proper care and inspection, high-quality polyester mooring lines can last 3-10 years outdoors depending on usage conditions, UV exposure, and maintenance. Polyester offers excellent UV resistance, making it one of the most durable materials for outdoor marine applications. Regular inspection for wear, abrasion, and UV degradation is essential to ensure optimal lifespan.

Recommended maintenance includes regular inspection for wear and damage, rinsing with fresh water after use to remove salt and debris, proper storage away from direct sunlight, and periodic replacement based on condition assessment. These practices help maximize the 3-10 year lifespan of polyester mooring lines in marine environments.
