The 12-Strand Spun Nylon is used as a tack and it is favored by clinicians using the latest horse training techniques. Our 12-Strand Spun Nylon is favored by clinicians using the latest horse training techniques. This fiber rope uses the same spun nylon found in our 3-strand, however in a non-hockling 12-strand construction. Features: 12-Strand Spun Nylon is extremely soft to the hand and easily spliced. Characteristics: Colors available: White Lengths available: 600 Material specifications: Sunlight/UV: Very little degradation from sunlight. Can be used outside over long term if inspected regularly. Chemicals: Nylon will degrade with strong oxidizing agents, mineral acids, and 90% formic acid. May discolor when exposed to high levels of carbon dioxide. Polyester has good resistance to most chemicals, except 95% sulfuric acid and strong alkalines at boil. Heat: Nylon melts at 460°F with progressive strength loss above 300°F. Polyester melts at 480°F with progressive strength loss above 300°F. Dielectrics: Good resistance to the passage of electrical current. However, dirt, surface contaminants, water entrapment, and the like can significantly affect dielectric properties. Extreme caution should be exercised any time a rope is in the proximity of live circuits.
