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

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 !

Just nylon rope. I bought chain and s hooks from the local hardware srore and all has been great.

Only had it outside in the weather for about four months. Has not shown any fading is occurring. Fabric is a nylon material I think.

It would be sad to tape or glue a nice, natural fiber rope. And, none of them will last as long as the rope -- especially if exposed to the weather.Google "Matthew Walker knot", "Wall and crown knot" or "Manrope knot" if you can have a small knob on the end of the rope. If not, try a "Whipping knot". All will hold up better and will look better, too.

I seems to be a nylon rope. It did start to wear at the center where it was anchored so we wrapped it with duct tape. I would expect this kind of wear with any rope because of the movement.

This product is for one time use and is not for repelling. It catches you when you are sitting in a tree and fall but not meant for regular use. The rope itself is thick like repel rope but I don't know if its appropriate for that. The ropes seem like a very high quality (I just can't speak to it)

Good afternoon and that's a very good question. I just pulled one of the vests off our shelf and it shows that they are made from polyester. The vest seems very well made and the material seems to be extremely strong and durable.I hope this information helps answer your question. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with and have a great day! Jessica S., Brandshopper Stores

I do not know if it is UV resistant, mine hasn't changed color. I do know that with a weighted base, over 50 pounds, it will withstand winds to 25 or 30 MPH

Just about the same as regular rope light. I did not buy this per say....my son did and he used it in a curio cabinet he was making...it is very pretty in there as the light for it. Also has lasted very well, but it is not on a lot.......hope this helps!

it's a nylon type material which should be ok outside, don't expect that it is sunbrella or they would advertise that, so it may fade, but I would expect that with a dark color

Depends on where you live, I suppose, but I would be concerned that the sun's ultraviolet light would cause premature deterioration of the fabric and/or the bungee cords. Outdoors bouncing sounds great but I would probably tend to take the tramp back inside upon completing my workout.

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.

Seems to me like it was made of nylon or something similar, mine is not exposed to UV rays so I can't testify to it holding up

The fabric is 100% polyester, a synthetic polymer. From wikipedia "Synthetic fibers (such as polyester) also can create materials with superior water, wind and environmental resistance compared to plant-derived fibers, and are sometimes renamed so as to suggest their similarity or even superiority to natural fibers". While no material will be indestructible in sunny southern California forever, this material will hold up better compared to most other materials.

Sorry, I am not qualified to answer that ...( I don't know if its UV stable ) but its amazing stuff for other projects.

Anna, I am not exactly sure what it is made of but it appeared to be the normal nylon tent material - if that helps. My kids were definitely shaded from the sun under it. I did not notice any odor, but we opened and used it outside where I probably would not have notice anything anyway.
