1/16" Nylon Knotless Netting vs 1/8" Knotless Polyester Netting
Buy the nylon netting for fine, tight mesh where small objects or birds must be contained, and the polyester netting for large spans where coverage per roll matters. Both share the same 100 lb mesh breaking strength and 1/16 in cord, so strength is a wash. The polyester gives you a wider roll, coarser 1 in mesh, higher yield and a sewn webbing border, plus optional urethane or fire retardant coating. The nylon gives you a 0.5 in mesh that holds small loads and a plain unfinished edge you cut and fasten yourself.
- Choose the 1/16" nylon knotless netting if you need a tight half-inch mesh to contain small items, birds or debris and you will cut and edge it yourself.
- Choose the 1/8" knotless polyester netting if you are covering a large area such as a batting cage, barrier or netting panel and want a wide roll with a finished border.
