Climbing Lines for Lowering Operations:
Climbing line should not be used as a lowering line, come-along rope or
bull rope. These constructions are designed for maximum flexibility and
excellent handling qualities when used in climbing applications. These
design characteristics are not necessarily suitable with lowering
operations. This is especially important if the rope has already been
retired from climbing service. Other types of ropes specifically
designed for lowering and come-along operations should be used for
these types of applications. |
ARBOR-PLEX CLIMBING LINE
Arbor-Plex combines polyester and polyolefin in a "DuraTite"
construction. The DuraTite braiding process tightens the braid to keep
the rope round and firm for knot control and to allow the strands to be
snag resistant. The tough polyester jacket fiber surround the
polyolefin center fibers to maximize resistance to wear and fiber
fusing while creating a lightweight high-strength rope. The outer
polyester fibers utilize Samson's Parallay® fiber orientation that
prolongs rope life by minimizing the sawing action of fibers over rough surface.
