The working strength of this VidaXL braided polyester rope is 260 kg.

No, this rope is designed for general purpose, marine, and truck applications. It is not rated or intended for climbing, rappelling, or lifting heavy objects overhead where failure could result in serious injury or death.

Polyester rope generally has good resistance to most common chemicals, oils, and greases. However, prolonged exposure to strong acids or solvents may cause damage.

Yes, you can cut the rope to your desired length. It is recommended to seal the cut ends with heat (e.g., a hot knife or lighter) to prevent fraying.

Breaking strength (1300 kg) is the minimum load at which the rope is expected to break. Working strength (260 kg) is the maximum load the rope should be subjected to in normal use, which is typically a fraction of the breaking strength to ensure safety and longevity.

Store the rope loosely coiled in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and chemicals. Ensure it is clean and dry before storing to prevent damage and mildew.

This is normal for new polyester rope. Work the rope gently or use a different knot that is easier to manage. Soaking in water can sometimes help temporarily increase flexibility, but dry storage is recommended.

The ends of synthetic ropes should be sealed to prevent fraying. Use a hot knife or lighter to carefully melt and seal the ends. If fraying occurs mid-rope, inspect for abrasion and consider replacing the damaged section.

While this rope is UV resistant, prolonged extreme exposure can eventually cause degradation. Store the rope properly when not in use and inspect it periodically for signs of weakening.

Ensure the rope is coiled loosely and stored correctly. If it becomes tangled, carefully work through the knots by hand, avoiding forceful pulling which can worsen the tangle.
