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

Hi, I got this for my son. After using it a week the center did have some broken fibers so we wrapped the center with duct tape. I am not complaining, the way the rope is used I kind of expected it to fray. Maybe in the future the company will wrap the center. Otherwise he was very happy with the rope - a good workout.

The "natural" sisal rope is a bit yellowish, about the same color value as a role of masking tape and a bit more yellow than a piece of white, untreated pine. Ours was used in an outdoor setting; the color blended into the environment as it was "natural".

I don't know. I would assume it has some weather resistance. I bought it for outdoor use for cinching down on covers I am making. If they are in the sun I'm sure the UV light will eventually degrade them over time. But I plan on keeping them cover where possible. Hope that helps!

It is made almost entirely of ABS plastic, so after about 10 years in the sun, it will start to degrade. But it will still work fine. There is a small connecting pipe made of galvanized steel that will start to rust eventually, in about 5 years and will probably be rusted through is 10 years. The water doesn't run through the pipe- it runs through the reel and has the handle connected to it. I live in a humid climate (Southeast Texas) where we get a lot of humidity and direct sun on the reel, and mine last ten years, but I'm ok with that. I have tried several hose reels and this one is the best I can find. It is made almost entirely of ABS plastic, so after about 10 years in the sun, it will start to degrade.

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

This was an amazing strong and durable product. I would think it could be exposed to the sun but with anything, sun exposure will break it down over time.

I applied it to a cold frame early last spring. I live at over 3500 feet altitude, therefore I get a strong dosage of ultraviolet radiation. During the winter months the material became brittle due to the radiation and broke up. This is a good material for the price but it is not resistant to ultraviolet at this altitude. I do have a greenhouse that I covered with a ultraviolet resistant plastic that is god for four years but the price is much higher. If you have a greenhouse which is easy to cover the warp brothers material might be the best way to go. If you prefer not to recover it every year I would suggest buying a resistant material for longevity. You might check the material offered by "greenhouse megastore, growers supply or Charlie's greenhouse" for price comparison. I hope this will help you out. If you have any other questions I will be glad to give you my input.

We've had ours for several years now and I can say that, yes, the padding, blue cover, and netting all seem to be affected by the sun. After one year, the part of the blue spring cover right outside the opening in the net, the only part in the sun, just started to disintegrate. No problem, I just rotated the padding so a new section is in the sun and the shredded part isn't in front of the opening. Now after about 3 years, the netting has started tearing and getting weak where the sun hits it. Rather than just order replacement netting and padding, we're going to replace our trampoline completely.

It comes with a yellow poly tow rope.....ours broke/shredded after several uses. We prefer a softer white nylon rope. We have two zip lines. The first zip we got had a nylon rope that has held up much better.

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

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 !

They appear to be made out of a nylon like fabric. They are pretty weather resistant, although after being outdoors all summer, my red one is starting to fade.

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.

Hi Richard, I use this glue for my jewelry company and I love it... it is WATER resistant but I have no ideal if it is sun (heat) resistant. I tried to google if it was heat resistant but didn't find anything. Sorry I could not be more help. Donna Kay
