Nylon has excellent breaking strain with shock absorption. Stretches 40 % before breaking.Very popular as anchor warps, especially for vessels using auto winches because it will tend to lay in anchor wells better than 3 strand types.
Some users will Pre-soak their Nylon 8-strand rope for two hours then dry it before first use. But this must be done with caution on double braid structure. If the cores shrink and the cover does not, then sheath slip can become a problem. The difference between 3 Strand Nylon and 8 Strand Nylon is most apparent when its hauled on deck. Because of its construction, the 8 Strand Nylon will take up far less space than 3 Strand. It lays more compactly in your locker or bag and will use about half the space of the same amount of 3 Strand.
