Rope Code Paint
Rope Code is a touch, flexible, water-borne urethane copolymer designed to act as a binder and colour coder for uncovered
braided synthetic fibre rope.
The coating will protect and bind the braided rope to reduce chafing while increasing wear resistance and fibre binding. Typically used on
- Halyards
- Sheets
- Lines
- Strops
- Nets
- Cordage

As manufacturers we can modify the Rope Code manufacturing formulation to suit individual requirements.
Require more stiffness in the rope for added chaff and wear resistance ?
Require less colour strength (or create special colours to your specification) ?
Require a thicker version for easier hand application (but less braid penetration) ?
We can supply (pricing will vary from those shown above) to your specific requirements.
