Has any one found a rope or line that will not stretch every thing i use will eventually stretch.

I've got mine attatched with white "bull tape." It's the stuff that is used to pull cable through conduit. So far, it hasn't stretched.

I have tried several kinds of rope and those which as you say "do not stretch" also seem to not dry and will mildew. I prefer the braided poly rope which has the strength and will dry very quickly. I have not seen or tried the bull tape as suggested, but I will try to find some to look at.

I found what they call "bull line tape" which is used for pulling thru conduit. The fellow had a roll but because his supply was low he could not give me any. I did how ever play with a bit of it and the flat tape seemed very hard to grip in a heavy pull. The reel did how ever state that it was mold and mildew proof. Maybe if I get lucky I can find someone else in the wire/conduit business that can give up a good section for a good test.
