Rope ID help

ATH · Jan 11, 2018

Got a bag-o-rope a few weeks ago. Got 4 nice pieces...I'm not sure what one of them is.

Thought it was Stable Braid, but it doesn't have the green tracer through it. Don't see it on TreeStuff's site (or any others, for that matter). Did they make some Stable Braid without tracer.

Anybody know off hand?

Second question...a little dumber, perhaps....how do I confirm actual diameter? I think it is 3/4". It lays a little flat. When I pull it just a little and get it round, it is right at 3/4".

First pic is best representation of actual color. Not orange or pink.

Thanks!

Snap a picture of the end. I got some a long while back and it was a 12 strand hollow braid from all gear (?) just like tenex tech

Hollow braid of the tenex type

Definitely not stable braid. Tenex tec or nerex?

I think Reed ID that as a rope used in pulling electrical and communications cable, if it's the same he thought it was SpiderFlex.

I went back and found that thread where id ID'd the SpiderFlex. That looks different than this because this has 2 carriers (the "TEC" part after Tenex). I am pretty confident that the guys who identified it as Tenex-TEC have it right on.
