New England Ropes Dock Line Nylon 3-Strand White . A long-wearing, flexible and easy-to-handle rope that has greater strength and better abrasion resistance than other three-strand nylon line. The combination of premium-grade nylon, four stage construction, and a special marine coating results in improved handling, greater chafe resistance, minimal hardening and longer life. Identified by a fine red tracer. Each dock line has a professionally spliced 12" eye with a heat-sealed bitter end.
