Sea-Dog Double Braided Nylon Dock Line 1/2" x 10'
Sea-Dog Double Braided Nylon Dock Line 1/2" x 10' — Product description
Sea-Dog's double braided nylon dock line gives you a strong, forgiving tie-up in a 1/2-inch by 10-foot length. It's rated to a 960-pound working load with 4,400 pounds of breaking strength, and the 12-inch spliced soft eye drops right over a piling or cleat. Gold and white, built to shrug off abrasion, UV, oil, and rot.
A dock line is one of those things you don't think about until it lets go. This one won't. Sea-Dog builds it from premium double braided nylon, so it stretches under load and soaks up the shock when a wake rolls through or the wind pipes up overnight. That give is what protects your cleats and your gelcoat.
The 1/2-inch diameter suits boats in the mid-size range, and the 10-foot length covers most slip and piling tie-ups. There's a 12-inch spliced soft eye on one end, so you can loop it over a piling or dock cleat in a second and lead the bitter end back to the boat. Working load limit is 960 pounds, with a breaking strength of 4,400 pounds.
Nylon this grade holds up out there. It resists abrasion where it rubs the chock, and it shrugs off mildew, oil, rot, and UV. The gold and white braid stays easy to spot on a crowded dock. It ships in a clamshell package. Keep a couple aboard as spares, you'll be glad you did.

Frequently asked questions
What size boat is this dock line for?
The 1/2-inch diameter is a common choice for mid-size boats. Line diameter is usually matched to boat length and weight, so step up a size for heavier boats. This line runs 10 feet long.
How strong is it?
It carries a 960-pound working load limit and a 4,400-pound breaking strength. The nylon also stretches under load, which cushions shock on your cleats and hardware.
What is the spliced eye for?
One end has a 12-inch soft eye splice. You drop the eye over a piling or dock cleat, then run the free end back to your boat. It makes tying up and casting off quick.
Will it hold up to sun and salt?
Yes. The nylon resists abrasion, mildew, oil, rot, and UV rays, so it stands up to season-long exposure at the dock.
