What rope would anyone recommend for a lock jack.

The ropes I have work but I am sure some are better than others. As it seems there are quite a few out there using lockjacks there might be some pearls of wisdom for when its time for a new rope.

Almost two years on th LJ and my favorite rope by far is Samson Velocity 11mm 24 strand. On my last 200' of a 600'.

I would look for something local mb see what Marlowes got in 24 or more strands thats tight with as little elasticity as allowed. The key is tight smooth braid imo.

Been using Yale Fire XTC 13mm and it's fine but recently used 12mm Tachyon and that's much better.

Tachyon when I use it. But prefer the VT.
