It does fade in sunlight after a while. I haven't tested for loss of strength though.

It appears to be nylon but not rubberised, so I imagine it would weather in the sun and rain. I cut it with heavy duty kitchen scissors and stapled it to the chair bottom, turned out great and easy to work with. Enough to do several normal chairs 3+.

From looking online at other suppliers of this TropiShade product, the material is called "sunbrella". I have only had the umbrella for a few weeks, so I don't know how the fabric withstands sun fading. The color now is very nice, a saturated vibrant rust color. They should indicate, and they don't, the led lights are not white, but a sort of deep yellow.

Because it's manila it tends to go bad when used in wet environments (in my experience it becomes hard and brittle if exposed to fresh water, even worse with seawater). In terms of appearance though it certainly looks nautical and is a bit more than 2 thumbs width so if it's purely for decoration or dry use this is a fantastic rope.

Hody , I use mine indoors so I don`t have any experience with UV ... it is a bright yellow , so better in the sun than black or grey chords . I love my US Wire product !

I wouldn't expose this product to sunlight. Uv light breaks down most epoxies. You would have to strip it and recoat every year. Try a marine varnish for outdoor furniture

Hello There. It is polyester and the color has not faded yet. There has been complaints about the arms breaking, I did not pay attention to that and... one of the arms snapped after only 2 months of use.

They are made of a light weight nylon type material. I hung them outside in my trees for 8 months where they stayed in all types of weather. They were all still working perfectly when I recently brought them in for hurricane season in The Florida Keys, although the color of the material was somewhat sun faded. They have a very soft glowing light, and everybody loved them.

It has a UV coating on it but like anything, enough time in the sun will damage the outer coating. Wouldn't damage the line itself. 8 would recommend removing the hose when not in use. It does have a quick disconnect.

Shealthed in what I would say is probably polyester. I have used it for my workout equipment and now for keeping my patio shades down through the hot summer and higher than average wind. It has been a great purchase.

I would say that it is not "Sunlight" (UV) resistant. It is clear and I believe that whatever you put into it will get sun burnt. Also the lid is not sealed, it is just slightly tight. I would not leave it outside.

this is made out of synthetic fabric of relatively good construction that should withstand reasonable outdoor conditions. however, subjecting it to excessive winds, or wet freezing conditions will tear it apart just like everything else left outside. I would caution you that this type of fabric is not resistant to fading.

The material is some sort of nylon, so it can be used outdoors. It might not last too long in direct sunlight, though.

I have used them outside for about three months now, but they are not exposed to the sun constantly, nor are they in a dusty or dirty area that would interfere with the velcro hooks and loops. I would be wary of any black plastic in the sun, and no matter what the material it's made of, if you can't glom up your velcro with any kind of debris, it ain't gonna "velcro" any more. Good LucK.

Not this particular rope, you'll need something thicker made from manilla. If it's for lifting stuff find som3thing at a higher gauge if you need it to.lift people or animals ect find a nice synthetic.

I'm not sure what kind of rope it is but it is very nice rope. I have used it for a year now and it has held up better and done better than some of my mammot ropes. The rope I got in this package was 10.0 mm which is what I like to do. But very nice rope. And the rest of the gear I am still using too after a year it is all nice and durable.
