Double-Braid Nylon Anchor Line – 1/2 in. x 150 ft., Black
A heavy-duty anchor line built for reliable holding in a wide range of conditions. This 150-foot, 1/2-inch double-braid nylon line combines a braided core with a braided cover for exceptional tensile strength and the natural shock absorption that makes nylon the go-to material for anchor rodes. The black finish gives it a clean, low-profile look on deck.
Key Features
- Double-braid construction — braided core inside a braided cover delivers superior strength and minimal hockle or kinking compared to twisted lay
- Shock-absorbing nylon — stretches under surge loads from wind, wake, and tide, protecting cleats, chocks, and anchor hardware from sudden stress
- 100% nylon — waterproof, rot-resistant, and highly resistant to UV and mild chemical exposure
- Pre-spliced galvanized steel thimble eye — heavy-duty eye splice with a galvanized thimble ready to connect directly to your anchor shackle
- Black finish — low-visibility, clean look that suits dark-deck and offshore aesthetics
- 150 ft. length — suitable for anchoring in depths up to 25–30 ft. using a standard 5:1 scope
Parts Desk Insights
Best use case: Ideal for recreational powerboats and sailboats up to approximately 30 ft. anchoring in calm to moderate conditions. The 1/2-inch diameter provides a comfortable grip and is compatible with most standard bow cleats and anchor rollers in this size range. Pair with a galvanized or stainless anchor shackle and a short length of chain for best holding performance. The black colorway is a popular choice for vessels with dark or charcoal deck hardware. Not recommended as a primary rode for extended offshore anchoring or vessels over 35 ft. — consider a heavier diameter or a nylon-chain combination rode for those applications.
