A rope protector 5 comprises a plurality of plates, rings or other similar rigid members 1, flexibly jointed, preferably along their outer edges, to form a sheet-like member. The rope protector may comprise chainmail, plate-mail, splinted-mail, ring-mesh or ring-armor. At least one fixing point comprising a cord 6 and a spring-clip 4 may be provided for securing the protector to another object or to a rope. A fabric cover may be provided over a section of the body of the rope protector to help prevent the ingress of dirt or contaminants. The sheet-like member may be joined along opposing edges by a releasable fastener 2, such as hook and loop fattener, to form a tube for enclosing a rope around its circumference.
