Marlow Bull Ropes (Lowering Lines)
Unlike many suppliers, we have a team of in-house riggers so we can produce lowering lines to custom lengths. Simply enter the diameter and length you require and specify the stainless steel hard eye if required. Standard lengths are 50m.
Marlow Bull Ropes or Lowering Lines are manufactured using our Marlowbraid ropes. Marlowbraid's unique parallel strand core has a distinct advantage over standard doublebraid constructions by offering improved breaking strength and reduced extension under high loads. In addition, the hardwearing 16 plait polyester cover eliminates the need for PU coatings.
It is also possible to buy the full range of Marlowbraid colours and sizes by the metre from our Marine section. You can even specify a variety of spliced ends too.

- 40% stronger than braid on braid Polyester
- Low twist core reduces extension under working loads
- Rope stretch factors 50% less than conventional braid on braid
- Hardwearing cover but still easy on the hands
- Easily spliced
- Colour identification options available
