SGT KNOTS Arborist Bull Rope
Best heavy-duty utility rope for demanding outdoor rigging and marine tasks.
This is the SGT KNOTS Arborist Bull Rope, a tough, double braid, high strength rope made from polyester, perfect for tackling demanding jobs. Because it's a braided rope made of polyester, it is ideal for outdoor uses where weather and UV exposure can cause premature failure. This ultra-tough polyester braided rope offers all the benefits of nylon but with little to no stretching, making it the ultimate utility rope for rigging, logging tools, and equipment. It is versatile, functional, and durable, boasting excellent abrasion, weather, and chemical/petroleum resistance. This rope is also a perfect companion for marine uses, suitable for halyards, anchor, and mooring duty on jet-skis, pontoon boats, or seagoing vessels, as it does not absorb liquid. SGT KNOTS is a Veteran Owned and Operated company committed to quality and consistency, passing bulk savings on to customers. Available in diameters of 1/2”, 5/8”, 3/4” and 1 full inch, and lengths including 100ft (the selected option), 120, 150, 200, and 300 feet.

Know before you buy
No, this is a low-stretch rope. Because it is constructed from polyester, it offers minimal to no elongation, which makes it ideal for rigging and applications where you need precise control without the bounce associated with nylon.
Yes, it is well-suited for marine use. The polyester construction does not absorb water, making it resistant to rot and mildew, and it performs reliably for tasks like halyards, mooring, and anchoring.
This rope is specifically designed for outdoor durability. Its polyester fibers are naturally resistant to UV degradation, abrasion, and chemical exposure, ensuring it won't break down prematurely when left outside.
While this is marketed as an 'Arborist Bull Rope,' it is primarily designed for rigging, hauling, and heavy-duty utility tasks rather than life-safety climbing. Always verify the specific tensile strength requirements for your intended application before use.
The double braid design consists of an inner core and an outer sheath, which provides a higher tensile strength and better abrasion resistance than single-strand ropes. This construction helps the rope maintain its shape and integrity under heavy loads.
