Manila Rope

In this category you may order twisted manila ropes made of hard fibres of the leaves of banana tree.

Manila is a pure natural fibre obtained from the leaf sheaths (abacá leaves) of musa (banana tree). The manila fibres are relatively coarse, have high tensile strength and are resistant to salt water. Slightly oily nature of the fibres makes manila ropes antistatic, water repellent and much more weathering-resistant than other ropes made of natural fibres.
