Its not really intended for use on muddy vehicles
Plasma and other branded rope are 12 strands in a plait.
No central line.

its good cos they have a abrasive outer layer, so stopps the inner strands getting chopped up

but bad cos it isnt intended for dragging a landy out of a muddy hole  :lol:

exactly how many strands are there to the rope ?

the pattern seems very similar to a marlow rope, i will have a look in the book t morra at work and see what i can find
what diameter is it ?
ill be able to give you a mms and swl for the rope  :wink:
