Staples Twine jute twine 500 g / 250 m, tensile strength 11.5 kg is a natural-fibre cord supplied on a compact spool.

The 500 g reel provides about 250 metres of continuous twine, offering a balance of length and thickness for tying, bundling and general household use.

Advantages

Natural jute fibre gives the twine good grip and flexibility while remaining biodegradable and compostable under appropriate conditions. The specified tensile strength of 11.5 kg ensures reliable holding for typical gardening, packaging and crafting applications without excessive bulk. Supplied on a spool, the twine is easy to unwind and store, reducing tangles and making measurement and cutting straightforward.

How to use

Cut the required length with scissors or a sharp blade and tie with standard knots appropriate to the task, such as a double knot for secure binding or a slip knot for adjustable tension. For garden use, tie loosely around stems to avoid constriction and check ties periodically as plants grow. When using for parcel securing, wrap the twine evenly and tie off firmly, ensuring knots are snug but not overly tight to avoid damage to contents.

Usage recommendations

Store the spool in a dry place away from prolonged moisture to preserve fibre strength and prevent mildew. For outdoor applications where long-term weather resistance is required, consider periodic replacement since jute is biodegradable and will deteriorate over extended exposure to rain and sunlight.
