braided rope
Intertwined fiber cord
Braided rope is rope made by interweaving multiple strands in a pattern, rather than twisting them together.
The braided construction typically produces a rope that's more flexible, less prone to kinking, and often stronger than twisted rope of the same diameter.
Common in marine, climbing, and general utility applications.
