The instant invention is comprised of a rope having a tension-cushioning shock absorber whereby the rope is passed through oppositely arranged openings in a rubber element which has high extensibility and resilience, said rope being firmly fixed to opposite points of said rubber element by means of clamps and abutments whereby the length of the rope section situated between the abutments is loosely wound when unloaded or lightly loaded and the axial length of said rope section corresponds to the maximum extended dimension of the rubber element whereby said loosely wound rope section is completely stretched out when under full tension load so that any initial shock is absorbed by the rubber element and the maximum tensile stress is absorbed by the rope.
