Lbs Crossbow
How strong were the ropes on Roman crossbows?
Large crossbows on wheels were a lethal weapon used by the Roman armies, attached to them was a crank handle and up to 700 Lbs of strain
was applied ready to fire it, I'm very curious to know how they managed a rope to be able to handle that sort of pressure in the year 62 AD?
They didn't use rope. Initially they used bundles of animal sinew. However, later they changed to using women's hair, which is incredibly strong. They got the hair from slaves captured in Britannia and Gaul.
