Help is this a good rope?

[Anna.]

i know most people can't read what it says, but is this a good rope for partial hanging? it says it can take up to 250kg, is braided and is made of polypropylene. i need to know because if all goes to plan i can ctb on the 25th

9mm is on thinner side, but it should be fine.
What's your weight?

I don't think there are problems. The drawbacks arise when strings of that millimeter are used for full suspension.

What diameter is it? The main concern there is discomfort/pain from thin rope.
Also what's your weight?

250kg is more than enough unless you want to jump instead of "normal" hanging. I would suggest looking for a rope with 12-15 mm diameter as it would be less discomfort and pain. But if it doesn't concern you, this rope should work perfectly

Again it should be more than enough. You can test it too by hanging on it with your hands kinda like when climbing

I am 140 kilos and go for full suspension. Got a 10m polypropylene rope at 12mm weidth . It writes in description point of break 2200 kilos . Will this be ok?

 

[sayire]

braided polypropylene is a good choice. 9mm is fine for partial and perhaps even better to close the arteries little easier.
for full suspension, a bit thicker is likely more comfortable

It is sort of thin but it would still work, you cant really go wrong with this method though
