Description

The SAR Technical Low stretch rope has been produced for the Rescue, Military, Intervention and Rope Access personnel. Its construction has been aimed at giving a high abrasion performance and with its fine twisted braid and twin plait reducing impregnation of abrasive materials into the core.

The design of its sheath gives a smoother action on mechanical rope adjustment devices. prEN12841 & EN353-2)

The colour is White with Red & Black flecks.

Its static strength of 23kN with a fig 8 knot allows it to comply with section 4.4 static strength of 22kN for the termination of a textile flexible line in the standard EN353-2. Using a fig 10 knot would take it even higher at a static strength of around 27kN.
