Wind Rope
1/4″ Knitted Polyester Greenhouse Wind Rope
Protect your roll-up sidewall curtains from severe wind damage and billowing with this heavy-duty 1/4″ knitted polyester wind rope. Installed in an opposing X-pattern, it keeps curtains flat through their full range of travel and actively steers the roll-bar smoothly under the Roll-Lock as the curtain lowers.
Why Polyester?
UV & Weather Stable: Outlasts polypropylene under harsh, continuous sun exposure without chalking, fraying, or degrading.
Low Stretch: Holds tension through seasonal temperature shifts, eliminating the need for frequent re-tightening (unlike nylon).
Film-Safe: Knitted cord glides gently against poly film without the abrasive cutting, tearing, or rusting associated with wire cable.
Rot Resistant: Impervious to constant greenhouse wet-and-dry cycles.
