Description

32mm Cotton Rope – sold by the metre

Cotton is the softest rope in our collection. Lightweight and flexible, it is designed for comfort and ease of use.

The cotton is 100% natural, from a managed harvest, and is unbleached or coloured

While not intended for heavy-duty outdoor loads, its aesthetic appeal and soft grip make it the premier choice for indoor design and handicrafts and many other uses.

The standard finish is for the ends to be bound with pvc tape. If you would like to have them either whipped, end capped, soft spliced or hard spliced please visit our Rope End Finishes Category.

Typical uses for our 100% natural Cotton Rope

  • macrame and crafting
  • creative hobbies
  • interior design and décor
  • decorative knot work
  • bannister and indoor rope rails
  • barriers
  • theatre / film sets
  • commercial displays and installations

We also sell a great range of braided Cotton Cord and flatter, hollow braided Cotton Magicians’ Rope/Cord.

Easy to use

This rope is beautifully soft and flexible, so remember the thickness will easily be changed by pulling taught or flattening – it is made from natural cotton after all.

Takes knots well and is comfortable to grip – rope burns are rare!

The fibres of a natural rope will swell up when wet, making it shrink in length, so allow 10-15% if using in damp or wet conditions.

Not resistant to water, oils, or chemicals.

Perfect for the job!

I am very pleased with the 32mm rope, which was for use as tie backs on very heavy tapestry curtains. Ordering was easy and delivery especially speedy. The pieces were cut to size and well bound at the ends, ready for decorative finish and loops.
Thank you Ropes Direct

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.
