FAQ's

Frequently asked questions about our ropes and our answers.

How should I store my jute ropes for bondage?

Store your ropes at room temperature and keep them away from excessive heat, light (direct sunlight) and moisture.

Twisted jute ropes have positional memory. Therefore, do not store your ropes in tightly wound bundles for long periods of time. It is better to place them loosely rolled up in an air-permeable box with a lid and additional ventilation slots. A shoebox comes in handy here.

Do not store your ropes in a plastic bag or container as the ropes may sweat when exposed to heat.

Alternatively, you can store your ropes, following our Japanese models, hanging over a rod, such as a curtain rod, which is mounted on the wall at a height of approx. 2.20m. This allows your ropes to rest in a naturally ventilated environment.

My rope untwists at the rope bight into its individual strands.

What can I do?

This can happen when a rope is exposed to a great deal of weight or stress on the same area over and over again. To counteract this, pull your rope in both directions, i.e. once from right to left and from left to right, through your tightly closed hand to equate the twist across the entire length of the rope. Repeat this process until the twist of the rope at the bight is in balance again.

For the nerds: this action is also called "to dress" a rope.

Wear of the rope loop (bight)

A simple and effective trick

The "loop" (or bight) of your rope is the most susceptible section of your rope to wear and tear. First signs of wear and tear will probably occur here. As soon as you notice this, shorten your rope by about 10 - 20 cm/ 4 - 8in and knot the new end. The loop now moves to the next free position. With this simple trick you'll extend the lifespan of your rope.

Ropes that are already worn should no longer be used for high-risk applications.

My ropes are dirty. How can I clean them?

We found out that Alcohol has a lesser detrimental effect on jute fibre than water, and penetrates much better into compacted jute strands and yarns. That's why we clean our ropes with sake.

Here's how it works:

Pour cheap sake into a high-sided pan. Note that sake already boils at ~78°C! Just before the sake begins to boil, turn the temperature down to minimum and let it simmer.
Put the dirty rope in the pan. Make sure the rope is completely covered with liquid and put the lid on the pan, since sake evaporates faster than water.
Move the rope back and forth every few minutes. Most stains disappear within 15 minutes.

Hang to air dry naturally with at least the following tension to bring the rope back to equilibrium:

ø6mm 980g per metre rope
ø5.5mm 900g per metre rope
ø5.0mm 800g per metre rope

It may be necessary that you need to o re-oil your rope after this treatment. We recommend using Jojoba oil for this.
