Custom Nylon Nets Featuring Rope Riblines

Thursday, May 16th, 2013

Over the last few weeks there have been hundreds of customized nylon netting productions supplied by Gourock for a very wide range of customers and users.  From private and individual persons to large professional/commercial clients, nylon netting panels and fabrications have been produced and shipped out for dozens of unique applications and intended uses.  Many of the nets that are required to be manufactured include interesting features and details, mainly to enhance the feasibility of the final installation and the overall preferences of the user for whatever the netting is intended to accomplish.

One of the popular and useful features that is consistently included on many custom nylon netting jobs is a construction addition known as a “ribline”.  Riblines are ropes that are sewn within the internal area of the mesh, and they add additional opportunities to clip/connect the netting to the structure or cabling that is to support it.  Gourock.com can quote and supply netting panel designs that feature rope riblines with nets that are constructed from the DuPont® Type 66-728 knotted nylon netting.  There are 3 mesh sizes, and multiple twine-thicknesses available in that material – so there will most always be an option that will be best suited for your intended application.
