It does fade in sunlight after a while. I haven't tested for loss of strength though.

Hi Richard, I use this glue for my jewelry company and I love it... it is WATER resistant but I have no ideal if it is sun (heat) resistant. I tried to google if it was heat resistant but didn't find anything. Sorry I could not be more help. Donna Kay

I seems to be a nylon rope. It did start to wear at the center where it was anchored so we wrapped it with duct tape. I would expect this kind of wear with any rope because of the movement.

It appears to be mostly synthetic...ours is outdoors and although it is not that old it seems to be holding up well to the elements and our use so far,as with anything outside I am sure that the sun will eventually fade/discolor it.

I would say it is water resistant. But not water proof. I have mine in the garage and so can't speak with authority, but I feel the material would not hold up well to ambient UV.

Not this particular rope, you'll need something thicker made from manilla. If it's for lifting stuff find som3thing at a higher gauge if you need it to.lift people or animals ect find a nice synthetic.

They are made of a light weight nylon type material. I hung them outside in my trees for 8 months where they stayed in all types of weather. They were all still working perfectly when I recently brought them in for hurricane season in The Florida Keys, although the color of the material was somewhat sun faded. They have a very soft glowing light, and everybody loved them.

Well I have had some labels in my garden for the last ten years and still look as good as new. They are outside year round in some of the harshest weather included extreme heat and sun to snow and hail. The trick is to buy the UV resistant tape which costs a little more but well worth the extra money.

It's supposed to block 95% of UV rays. The Shade Sail comes with large D rings at the corners and 3 pieces of nylon rope. I just hammered a couple of nails into the face of my front porch to hook two of the D rings and tied two pieces of the rope together to tie the 3rd end to a Palm Tree

it's a nylon type material which should be ok outside, don't expect that it is sunbrella or they would advertise that, so it may fade, but I would expect that with a dark color

It says that Sunbrella fabric resists UV, fading, staining and mildew, whereas I'm guessing the cotton one doesn't since it's 100% cotton. I have the colorful cotton one and it is so soft and comfy, but I keep it mostly indoors.

The "natural" sisal rope is a bit yellowish, about the same color value as a role of masking tape and a bit more yellow than a piece of white, untreated pine. Ours was used in an outdoor setting; the color blended into the environment as it was "natural".

Depends on where you live, I suppose, but I would be concerned that the sun's ultraviolet light would cause premature deterioration of the fabric and/or the bungee cords. Outdoors bouncing sounds great but I would probably tend to take the tramp back inside upon completing my workout.

No. I think it is made of a fabric called Sunbrella. It doesn't fade and shades very well.

So far mine is great. Plastics all look good and it's in direct sunlight all day everyday. Not sure if they are actually UV protected though, might be a question or Spalding directly
