More than 4000 years ago, human beings have been living in an era when bark was used as fiber and bare thighs were rubbed with the palm of their hands to form a thread. Archaeological studies show that our earliest ancestors first tied handles to tools and weapons with ropes.

By 2800 BC, people in China had mastered the technology of making hemp rope, and people in China began to make rope with hemp fiber. By the beginning of AD, hemp fiber had become the main rope-making material in most parts of the world.

1775, the British inventor Matthew invented the rope making machine, ending the era of hand-made rope.

Starting from 1950, artificial fibers are used to make ropes. Manila rope with a diameter of about 2 mm will break under the tension of 55 12 kg, while nylon rope with the same thickness can withstand the tension of 13227 kg.
