Ideal for dock and anchor lines on large boats because its "single-braid" construction allows large diameter line to coil and flake easier than any other line. Extremely flexible when slack, it's immune to kinking or hockling and the 12-strand construction makes Mega Braid a pleasure to handle. Treated with NER's marine finish, which reduces shrinkage and water absorption and contributes to greater wet strength and abrasion resistance.

• 12-strand single braid
• Stretch: 10% at 15% of breaking strength
• Water and abrasion-repellent SeaGard® coating
