Twine is frequently used for lowering and retrieving light-weight samplers or equipment from groundwater monitoring wells and is usually discarded after each use.

Nylon Twine is a thin, light-duty type of rope made from synthetic fibers that are twisted or braided together. Material selection and type of braid can make a difference in ease of use or reliability. Most field personnel use Nylon Braided twine which offers good strength and very good abrasion resistance. Resists hydrocarbon.

Configurations

Twisted: Fibers are turned and lock stitched together. Twisted twine holds knots well but tends to unravel. Moderate strength. Rotates under load.

Braided: Strands are braided over and under each other in a pattern. This significantly reduces unraveling at the ends and rotation under load.
