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.

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

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

Yes, but I would not recommend using Manila rope for an outside swing. Manila weakens and rots over time due to rain, moisture, UV. One day a year or two from now, you'll climb on the swing, get up to max height and the rope will break - there goes your back, an arm, or a pelvic bone. Use a rope rated for outside or marine(water) applications - nylon maybe. Use 1" or 2" dia. Be safe - especially if children may use the swing.

I think so, but I'm not using mine now. I think that worst case scenario would be that you might need to sit on a stool or tie on an extension to the rope. No big deal in my opinion.

Yes. It can be used outside. It is small and you may want to consider a larger unit. If you do fly outside, please would watch out for: 1) Wind and 2) Range as you may fly out of good signal strength and not be able to control it.

it probably won't tear for a while.. I've used it on rough concrete and it has a few scratches on the rope.. I'd say avoid using it on concrete, but if you must, it should hold up

No. You could use them outside if there is not threat of rain and no wind. Wind will cause the silk to not work right.

The outside sheathing on the rope is flexible and fairly coarse. I have not had any problems with knots loosening. This is a utility rope, not intended for climbing, rappeling. etc. I use it mostly when working up high to apply tension to branches to direct their fall after cutting. It is a good general purpose utility rope and I have used it for many things from tree work to camping to raising light loads. As always, use the proper knot for the application. Hope this helps!

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

I dont see why not, just make sure you bring some rope and weight to hold it down.

I don't see why it couldn't be used outdoors, although a dogs natural instinct would lead it to the grass. But this product seems to be made of weather resistant materials

It is a thin rope. Mine has been outside for 18 months and is holding up fine.

yes. U would need to buy and bigger stack from a hardware store and nail it in the cement. You can also tie the rope to a fence.

As a daily use rope I'd say no. That said it would work just fine for intermittent use as long as you realize it's not a fall-rated rope like a static-line or climbing rope. General use is where it's shines due to it's light weight and easy handling texture. For the money it's hard to beat.

I would think you might be able to use it in an absolute emergency to get down from somewhere. I would never use it as a mountain climbing rope though. It's about a quarter inch thick

Absolutely, if you use it outside. It's not delicate, but, it's not indestructable.
