Quick Overview

This is a low-stretch static rope for technical rescue, rappelling, and hauling operations where line stability and predictability are paramount. Its hydrophobic polyester construction and high-visibility sheath make it optimal for SAR, industrial safety, and wet-environment use cases.

Field Application Steps

  1. Perform a full visual and tactile inspection of the entire 150' length before and after each deployment.
  2. Always use appropriate edge protection to shield the rope from abrasive surfaces, regardless of the sheath's durability.
  3. Adhere strictly to a 10:1 safety factor, limiting the maximum Working Load Limit (WLL) to 766 lbs for life-safety applications.
  4. Never use this rope for dynamic fall arrest; it is a static line intended only for controlled tension systems like rappelling or hauling.
  5. Maintain a detailed rope log to track every use, inspection, and incident to ensure proper service life and operator safety.
  6. Clean and store the rope in a cool, dark, dry environment away from all chemical contaminants and UV radiation.
