Product Information
Full details
The Faithfull Hi-Vis Nylon Brick Line is designed for general bricklaying and marking out tasks. Its key benefit is its strength and low stretch, ensuring accurate lines for construction. A potential caveat is that it's best used with a compatible dispenser for optimal results. This braided nylon line resists fraying, is rot-proof, waterproof, and mildew-resistant, making it suitable for various weather conditions. It also functions well as a plumb line due to its lack of spin.

Troubleshooting
Line appears to be stretching more than expected
Ensure the line is properly tensioned. Check for any snags or obstructions that might be putting uneven stress on the line. Verify the line is not being used beyond its intended application.
Line is difficult to see against background
While the line is high-visibility orange, extreme lighting conditions or certain background materials might reduce contrast. Consider using temporary markers on the line or adjusting your lighting if possible.
Line tangles easily
Ensure the line is wound neatly onto its spool or into a dispenser after use. Avoid pulling the line too quickly or letting it bunch up when not under tension.
