The Operator�s Manual for my KRONE 260 states �Select a twine that meets a minimum requirement of 140 lb. tensile strength�.

Does anyone know who manufactures 140 lb. tensile strength twine?

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to all, especially IaGary, for information on baler twine.

Enjoyed reading information on baler twine on the web link provided by Heat Houser.

Bought "Brasil Gold" 16,000 ft 190# at Tractor Supply.

Part three - how much twine does it take to wrap a 5x4 round bale?

I get 35 5x6 bales out of 1 ball of 16000 twine.

Or about 225 ft per round bale.

Thats with a wrap about every 6 inches.

Thanks for the info on sisal. We still find strands of nylon twine in the pasture where my father-in-law fed the cattle. Its hard on the mowers and other equipment and again, since our hay will be stored in a barn, I want something that won't last longer than I will.

Part two of the question - Since our hay will be stored under cover and not out in the weather, I would prefer to use a natural twine that biodegrades. Is there a natural twine that meets the 140 lb. tensile strength?

All sisal twine will degrade out in the weather.

So any 16000 or 9000 foot sisal twine will work.

All basal twine will degrade out in the weather.

So any 16000 or 9000 foot basal twine will work.

All 16,000 and 9,000 ft twine is 140 lbs or greater tensile strenght.

Binder twine is under 140 lbs.

I'm not sure the statement "All 16,000 and 9,000 ft twine is 140 lbs or greater tensile strenght." is always correct. 16,000 etc is how much is in the ball and not the strength.
I see 110#, 120#, and 130# twine, in all sorts of lengths, in the local TSC as well as the 140# which is 22,000 ft.
