The Rothco SWAT Rappelling Rope is built for the rappel or rescue mission where a line has to handle heat, chemicals and abrasion. Its high-tensile strength nylon cord supports up to 7,660 pounds, and a braided poly sheath resists heat, chemicals and abrasion for added durability and longevity. The static rope meets OSHA, ANSI and NFPA standards, measures 7/16 inches in diameter and comes in 150 or 200 feet. Made in the USA for demanding work.

Why it works:

  • A clear load figure to plan around: You know the number before the rope goes out. The high-tensile strength nylon cord supports up to 7,660 pounds.
  • Durability in harsh environments: The outer layer is what meets the job first. A braided poly sheath resists heat, chemicals and abrasion.
  • Two lengths to fit the task: Order the line your work calls for. The rope comes in 150 or 200 feet, both at 7/16 inches in diameter.
  • Standards teams look for: Compliance questions get a straight answer. This static rope meets OSHA, ANSI and NFPA standards.
  • Made in the USA: Domestic construction for crews who prefer it. The SWAT Rappelling Rope is made in the USA.
