Whether you’re managing a busy stage production, setting up a film shoot, or organizing AV cables in a professional environment, Xpose Safety’s 1/8" Trickline Rope is the trusted go-to solution. Also referred to as theater tie line, sash cord, or trick cord, this rope is designed specifically for discreet utility work where strength, flexibility, and invisibility are key.
This professional-grade rope features a braided cotton jacket around a durable synthetic core, delivering the best of both worlds: the soft handling and knotting ease of cotton with the strength and longevity of synthetic material. The result is a rope that’s flexible, easy to cut to size, holds knots firmly, and can be reused multiple times without fraying or degrading.
Available in black or white, our tie line is nearly invisible against backdrops, curtains, or rigging equipment — making it ideal for live productions, concerts, theaters, stage crews, lighting techs, and AV professionals. It’s perfect for bundling cables, securing stage props, managing lighting grids, hanging set elements, and much more.
Choose from two convenient spool sizes — 600 feet or 3,000 feet — to match the scale of your project. Whether you're working a small community theater or a major film set, this lightweight, high-performance rope makes set-up and tear-down faster and more organized.
