Nylon rope shrinks primarily due to its thermoplastic nature. When exposed to heat or certain conditions, the nylon fibers can lose their initial shape and length, causing the rope to contract. Additionally, moisture absorption can lead to temporary swelling, followed by shrinkage as the rope dries. This combination of heat and moisture effects contributes to the overall shrinkage of nylon rope over time.

Which is stronger rope nylon manila polyester or polypropylene?
Among the rope types mentioned, nylon is generally considered the strongest due to its high tensile strength and elasticity, making it resistant to shock loads. Polyester also offers good strength and is less prone to stretching compared to nylon. Manila rope is natural and weaker than both nylon and polyester, while polypropylene is lightweight and resistant to moisture but typically has lower strength than nylon and polyester. Overall, nylon and polyester are the strongest options.
Is nylon thread stronger than a steel wire of the same thickness?
More information is needed really as the answer depends hugely on the application. For example, yes you could tow a friends broken down car with a steel cable of equal strength to the nylon tow rope. ....but not, you could not replace a nylon rope used to moor a boat with (untreated) steel cable as it wuold rust. Nylon rope also has some "give" in it, allowing it to absorb some shock as tension is taken, it is also an excellent insulator. Steel has almost no give at all and is a fairly good conductor (though not brilliant when efficient conduction is required). So it depends massively on your application - all answers from "absolutely not" to "it would be even better" can appy. Mark
