Rope Size and Application

When selecting the rope you will be purchasing there are a few guidelines for choosing size and lengths.

8mm & 6mm rope is great for general bodywork such as torso harnesses, pelvic harnesses, breast and/or genital bondage, and ankle or wrist cuffs. Good working lengths are the standard 25 feet for torso/pelvic work and 12.5 ft lengths for wrist or ankle cuffs. Either 4-mm hemp rope or 3-mm hemp string is marvelous for breast and/or genital torture.

Hemp Rope and Health

Hemp and Allergies: Some people who have allergic reactions to grasses or hay may have similar reactions to hemp. You may find you need to take your allergy medications to use it.  Hemp is a natural fiber and some of the smaller fibbers in the rope will shed during use. It may not be suitable for use on a bed or anywhere it’s not easy to clean up the fibers. The hemp fibers that get loose during the use of the rope are very small and fuzzy. They are soft and not really an irritant if you do get them on the sofa or in bedding. And hemp sheds much less than your favorite dog or cat.
