Manila Battling Ropes, Capped

Visit Battling-Ropes-Training.com Mostly used for outdoor training. All manila ropes are treated with a straight mineral oil petroleum product to stop mold and bugs during shipment & storage. Any odor or oily feeling will dissipate with use. Caps may be used as handles to avoid touching the rope.  Manila ropes do shed during use so we recommend that they be used outside, in a garage, or basement environment. Manila rope is the best rope for use on semi-abrasive surfaces. Using on this type of surface can still cause the rope to fray but it will hold up longer than the poly rope on this type of surface. Grass, dirt, or smooth concrete are the best surfaces to train on (NOT rough concrete or tar like a driveway). End caps are glued & heat shrunk. End caps may also be purchased separately.  Choose from either a 50 ft. or 100 ft. length rope in either a 1.5" or 2" size.  These ropes are the preferred rope for many professional and amateur football universities throughout the nation. Rope exchanges only, no refunds. The 1.5” 50 ft. rope is the best rope to start with for general physical preparedness & conditioning.  The benefits of training with this rope are as follows:
