	A '''rope pump''' is a type of [[pump]] that uses a loose-hanging rope, which is lowered into a [[Water well\|well]] and drawn up through a long pipe, with its bottom end submerged in water. Round disks or knots, matching the diameter of the pipe, are attached to the rope, allowing water to be pulled to the surface. The rope pump is commonly used in [[developing countries]] for both community water supply and [[Self-supply of water and sanitation\|self-supply]]. It can be installed on [[boreholes]] or hand-dug wells, providing an affordable and efficient water-lifting solution.
