SISAL ROPE & TWINE

Sisal is a hard natural fiber. It has excellent resistance to sunlight, little stretch and good knot-holding ability.

Sisal must be stored dry to avoid mildew; chemicals will cause it to deteriorate. Common uses include gardening, bundling, shipping and tie downs where strength is not a critical requirement.
