| Reviews Summary for Antenna Support Rope |
|
Reviews: 4

Average rating: 3.8/5

MSRP: $(missingadd MSRP)

Description: Used some of STI's 5/16" polyester rope to support my wire antenna. Was very surprised to find such a substantial outer jacket. It freely slips over the rope, is black in color, very low resistance when sliding over tree branches and is woven very tightly. Nice touch!!
We had a very bad storm the other night with winds in excess of 60mph. This rope came through it very well and was still tight!! Did not stretch!!
This will be my antenna rope of choice from now on.

I have used STI rope for a number of years with no problems. Ay present I have some 500+' in use guying 3 60' poles without any problems. In my case, I can not argue with success.

I used this loyally for 5 years. I just had a two month old piece that was off a new 5/16 roll split open at the sheath and slide down like a sock despite melted and taped ends. This rope used to be braided. Now it's cheap trash like nearly everything else being made. Just stealing the people's money... and this comes on the heels of last year's 3/16 and 5/16 inch company hot-cuts of 100 feet doing it too at another house after a year.
