Wall's STEEL LINE is a newly developed, super- tough rope designed for marine use.

STEEL LINE is manu- factured from a unique configuration and combina- tion of synthetics that offer a host of advantages. For example, STEEL LINE is 40 percent stronger than poly- propylene rope of the same diameter, twice as strong as wire rope on a weight basis, and stronger than nylon... pound for pound.

What else is so special about STEEL LINE? Be- cause its specific gravity is only slightly higher than polypropylene, it floats. And compared to polypropylene,

STEEL LINE stretches less under loads and offers superior abrasion resistance.

But best of all, STEEL

LINE delivers these prem- ium advantages without a premium price. It costs you no more than polypropylene of the same diameter and, in fact, costs less than any synthetic, based on dollars per pound of tensile strength.

STEEL LINE is available in 3 or 8-strand construction, in diameters 1 Vz inches and larger. And it's manufactured in the United States from domestic materials.
