FAQ

FAQ — Nylon Twin

What is Nylon Twin?

Nylon Twin is a twin-strand nylon cord (or rope) made from two parallel strands providing added strength and flexibility.

What are the typical applications of Nylon Twin?

Used for binding, rigging, general-purpose utility, crafts, small lifting, or wherever a durable cord is needed.

What’s the loading capacity of Nylon Twin?

The strength depends on the diameter and nylon grade. Always check tensile strength spec when selecting for load-bearing tasks.

Is Nylon Twin weather-resistant?

Yes, nylon has good resistance to moisture and mildew. However prolonged UV exposure can degrade strength; UV-protective treatments help.

How should I care for Nylon Twin?

Keep it clean and dry when not in use. Wash off dirt, avoid sharp edges, and store away from direct sunlight.

How long will Nylon Twin last?

With proper usage and care, it can last many years. Lifespan decreases if used under harsh conditions with constant abrasion or UV exposure.
