Polyethylene Rope for Aerotowing Gliders

Just a bit of feedback regarding the 2 lengths of polyethylene rope 10mm and 12mm purchased last April for use as aero tow ropes at Burn Gliding Club Ltd, Selby.

The gliding club has had all sorts of technical difficulties over the last 18 months with our tow planes so there has been far less aerotow launches done than normal. However, I am pleased to confirm that both diameters of rope seemed to perform ok but the 10mm rope appears to give the best all round performance and shows the least tendency to fray when used on our hard runways. Also the lighter weight and narrower diameter of the 10mm rope creates less drag on the tow aircraft after the glider has released and less of a tail down trim issue.

The 12mm rope seems to fray more easily and didn’t appear to be twisted together as tightly as the 10mm material. Neither rope seems to hold much water when dragged through puddles so that’s also a bonus compared to ropes with woven casings.

So all in all, the 10mm rope appears to be perfect for aerotowing off our hard runways and its nominal 1100kg breaking strain is double the strength of the 500+/-50Kg weak link used for aerotowing.

Great rope for glider aerotowing

We have been using the 10mm rope at Burn for aerotowing gliders off tarmac runways for several years now. This rope is very durable, doesn't absorb water, is easy to splice and is very convenient for us when supplied in pre-cut 55m lengths wound into a reel. It saves a lot of hassle measuring out the correct lengths. I highly recommend this product.

5mm Grey HMPE 12-strand - 100m reel

First class experience from start to finish! One weekend I had a little project in my mind's eye for my garden with posts, solar lights and ropes, but I know nothing about ropes. I did a bit of research and found the Ropes Direct website clear and helpful, however I baulked a bit about cutting the rope and adding hooks myself (the video showed the use of a blowtorch). I sent an online query and less than 20 minutes after opening for business on the Monday I had a detailed quote, and an offer to cut the rope and fit the hooks for a very reasonable charge. I also received valuable advice about the "drape" I required. Within 24 hours the ropes, hooks and eyes were delivered! Very impressed with the website, quality of product and particularly the customer service from start to finish. I have no hesitation about recommending Ropes Direct.
