Question: Is it possible for me to hang my manila rope outside?

Answer:

We do not recommend hanging a manila rope outside unless it is taken down after each use and stored in a safe place. Neither the climbing rope material nor the hanging mechanism are designed for outside usage. When exposed to water, manila tends to rot from the inside out and will also develop "rope splinters" which are very uncomfortable.

Fortunately we do have synthetic polyplus ropes specifically designed to handle outdoor usage. They will dramatically enhance your outdoor rope climbing experience -- give us a call at 1-800-978-0206 to find out more about polyplus outdoor climbing ropes.
