MAGNARO® Nylon
Nylon was the world’s first true synthetic textile fibre. Our MAGNARO® Nylon mooring rope can be used for all purposes and are produced according to the latest EN and ISO standards.
It combines high (dry) strength and excellent abrasion resistance. Its high elasticity makes the rope very suitable as a mooring tail.
