Specs & features.
These ropes are usually constructed from high-tensile, multi-layered synthetic fibers (like nylon or polypropylene) or soft, carded cotton/wool. A 12 mm ) diameter is the ideal balance; it is thick and strong enough to withstand the lunges of a massive animal, yet thin and soft enough to avoid bruising the hide or causing rope burns. They are generally available in professional lengths ranging from 12 to 25 feet (approx. 4 to 8 meters) to accommodate the looping process.
