Multi-Purpose Polyester Mooring & Anchor Rope with Stainless Steel Thimble

The polyester rope with stainless steel thimble is designed to serve a variety of marine needs – from secure docking at the marina to reliable anchoring offshore. It is made of high-quality, three-strand twisted polyester, which provides a balanced combination of slight elasticity (to absorb shock loads) and high tensile strength with excellent environmental resistance. The built-in stainless steel thimble eye at one end is professionally spliced into the rope, ensuring a dependable loop that can be directly attached to anchor chains, dock cleats, or towing eyes without abrading the rope fibers under load. The rope’s white color offers good visibility and a clean appearance on deck, and it’s easy to coiled and wash off salt and dirt after use.

Key advantages of this rope include its strong resistance to UV radiation, saltwater corrosion, and abrasion. The polyester fibers do not weaken from sun exposure and do not absorb water, so the rope remains lightweight and flexible when wet, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use. The low stretch characteristic means your boat will remain securely held without excessive slack or bungee-like effect during wave action, yet the rope’s natural give will cushion sudden jolts to protect your equipment. The breaking strength of each diameter provides a large safety margin – for instance, the 12 mm size has an approximate break load of 2200 kg, more than enough for typical mid-sized vessels.

We offer multiple variants of this rope to fit different boat sizes and applications:

• 10 mm x 6 m (with thimble) – Ideal for small boats (up to ~6–7 m length) as a dock line or bow line. Also useful as a short leader between an anchor chain and the boat. (Breaking load ~1300 kg)
• 12 mm x 6 m (with thimble) – Recommended for vessels around 8–9 m. An excellent mooring line for medium sailboats and motorboats, providing a balance of flexibility and strength. (Breaking load ~2200 kg)
• 14 mm x 6 m (with thimble) – Suited for larger yachts and cruisers (~10–11 m). It withstands heavy loads during docking and keeps the vessel stable even in strong winds. (Breaking load ~2800 kg)
• 16 mm x 6 m (with thimble) – A heavy-duty line appropriate for yachts ~12–14 m or any application requiring maximum security. Perfect for mooring in rough waters or open moorings. (Breaking load ~3500 kg)
• 10 mm x 30 m (with thimble) – Anchor rope for smaller boats (up to ~7–8 m). Provides ~30 m length for safe anchoring in deeper waters. Can be attached to a short chain using the built-in thimble for a complete anchor rode.
• 12 mm x 30 m (with thimble) – A versatile anchor line for mid-sized boats (~8–10 m). The polyester construction ensures the anchor stays set, and the length is sufficient for a variety of depths and conditions.
• 14 mm x 30 m (with thimble) – Designed for larger craft (~10–12 m). It guarantees secure anchoring and is durable against the surge and pull of waves as the boat swings at anchor.
• 16 mm x 30 m (with thimble) – The strongest option, suitable for heavy anchors and boats above 12 m. It’s the preferred choice for big yachts requiring the utmost confidence when anchoring in windy or tidal areas.

Each variant comes with a ready-made eye reinforced by a stainless thimble, so you can immediately attach a shackle, carabiner, or connect to your anchor chain without additional work. We recommend rinsing the rope with fresh water after use in saltwater to remove salt crystals and extend its lifespan. This polyester rope with stainless steel thimble is an investment in your boat’s safety – it provides secure mooring and anchoring with easy handling (thanks to the pre-spliced thimble) and long-term durability. It will outperform and outlast ordinary ropes tied in a simple loop, giving you peace of mind whether you’re docked in a busy harbor or anchored in a secluded cove.
