It's heavy duty rope, maybe?

Makes me want to weigh the tow rope I used to use for off road recoveries. I don't think it was 10 lbs, and I can't imagine needing heavier duty rope for much of anything in DND.

Maybe ancient dragons? It was like a 15,000lb test rope.

That rope is probably not made of hemp. One of the top comments does out the math for hemp rope thick enough to be rated similar to modern climbing gear, and it came to around 9 lbs.

Oh it definitely isn't. Its a very modern purpose built rope that has no business being in DND. Its just the heaviest rope that I would have easy access to.
