4 x Crab'n Gear 6mm x 10m Sink Rope

Sink Rope – Black & White

Crab’n Gear Sink Rope is available in three diameters, 6, 7 and 8mm. Made from PP Raffia and Polyester, it absorbs the water, so it has a negative buoyancy allowing it to sink to the bottom of the waterway. Ideal for floating your pots the sink rope will go along the bottom and then up to the float, rather than from the pot up to the top of the water and then across the top to the float. Being below the water reduces the chances of it being caught in props and also getting caught or tangled in passing debris like weed, sticks and logs. When a rope catches debris like this there is a higher likelihood that the additional surface area of the debris can drag the pot in the tide reducing your catch and increasing the chance of your pot being lost. 

The Polyester and PP Raffia are soft on your hands and have excellent flexibility making it great for knotting and splicing. Sink rope is stronger than traditional PP or ‘Telco’ ropes with up to 25% higher breaking loads than PP rope.
