can this rope be used outside?

Maybe not. I've had it for 3 months and used it occasionally on a matted floor indoors and it's already frayed.

No- it will break down. Occasionally in the grass maybe, but long term outside no.

So far I've only used mine outside. You might get some grass stuck in there but it's not a big deal.

The surface will dictate the longevity of the rope fibers. If you're using it on something soft, like grass/dirt, it will be ok. I use mine on martial arts mats, indoors. Probably the best combination for maximizing the rope's usage. The sun exposure will shorten the life of the ropes fibers, as well.

Yes. But there is probably a weight limit. And the rope is made of the material that stretches so will have to adjust after use

I see no reason why it can't be used outdoors. However, be aware that it's designed to hold only a few light items - I doubt the string would last long if, for example, you put large wet bath towels on it. Also, the string might quickly deteriorate from outdoor exposure to UV light, and it's not at all clear if it can be easily replaced.

Most definitely. We used it to create a rope ladder and the guy who had to climb it every night weighed at least that much. If you intend to leave it out in the weather year round, it may degrade like all ropes with moisture and temperature changes.

Yes, it can be used outside. I have it almost fully extended and I definitely had to use the center bracket screwed into the ceiling of our patio. Had I not used the bracket it would have sagged in the middle and the weight of the curtains would have pulled the tension rod down. So tension only, not so good, rod secured with screws works great.

Hi, Lori. From one end to the other is about 9 inches long that's including the metal fastener. The length of the rope is 8 inches. Also, I don't see why it can't we used under water. You may need to set it outside to let it dry after you use it. Hope that helps. Take care.

I don't see why not. It is a heavy duty rope which can be tied to just about anything.

Hi I really dont think it would be a good idea. the rope is very slick and unless it has lots of wear and tear on it I dont think it would be a good idea. im using my rope now for about a month and its still pretty smooth. i would suggest getting a rope thay frays. hope this was helpful

No, I can't see it being for outside use. The wooden parts aren't treated. We use it at the bottom of our stairs to the second floor so our grandchild can't climb up unattended.

If this is going to be used outdoors you need to use outdoor rated cable. If not then no.

Yes, definitely can use outside. The only risk is going down any slope, there are no brakes, so flat areas are best. My kids love it, and well built, had it for over a year now.

I think the manual says it can be used outside. We have only used ours inside.

I don't believe so. There was nothing that indicated it could be used outdoors in the literature.

I would say no as the target is for use in a gym. The construction is not all that sturdy and the material is a bit light. Of course, asking the manufacturer would yield the most accurate answer. But owning it and using it myself I'd say the rope wouldn't fair well being stored outside.

In my opinion, no. The rope broke and supplier told me it is only designed to be hung from an eyebolt. It appears the warranty will not be honored unless it is used with the eyebolt supplied.

Yes it can be used outdoors. The skin is thick and so is the padding. You could probably lay it on gravel and be alright. The covering seems like it would repel water. You could probably leave it out in the rain and it'd be ok with a towel drying. Can't say how it'd hold up if you left it outside in the elements 24/7 though.

It is made of an unfinished wood. To use it outside you would have to put some kind of finish on it to protect it from the elements. Other than that it would work.
