Vorel rope 50 m 1.7 mm — Vorel 17470 utility rope for general use

Vorel rope 50 m 1.7 mm — Vorel 17470 is a 50-metre utility rope with a 1.7 mm diameter designed for general-purpose use. Supplied as a single coil, this lightweight cord is suitable for tying, bundling, gardening, camping and various household tasks. The compact diameter makes it easy to handle, store and thread through small fittings for versatile practical applications.

Advantages

The rope is manufactured from polypropylene yarn with a braided structure, which provides low stretch and improved tear resistance compared with lightweight crochet-made cords. Its construction offers abrasion resistance and stability for repeated handling. The material also shows resistance to oil, gasoline, ultraviolet radiation and moisture, which supports outdoor and workshop use without significant loss of performance.

Suitable for

• Tying and bundling items around the home and garage
• Gardening tasks such as securing plants, tying branches or marking rows
• Camping uses including guy lines, clotheslines and light load securing
• Workshop and DIY applications where a thin, strong cord is needed

How to use

Cut the required length with sharp scissors or a cutting tool and seal the ends if necessary to prevent fraying. For load-bearing or safety-critical tasks, inspect the rope for damage before each use and avoid exceeding the rope's practical limits. Use knots appropriate for the task—simple hitches and clove hitches work well for tying and bundling, while a taut-line hitch can be used for adjustable tensioning when camping.

Usage recommendations

Store the rope protected from prolonged direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prolong its service life. For applications involving heavy loads, sharp edges or critical safety requirements, choose a rope with a larger diameter or a product specified for lifting and safety use.
