Product description
High-quality and lightweight half rope
The Rope Rappel 8.6 mm half rope from Simond is ideal for use in alpine terrain. Multi-pitch routes are extremely comfortable to tackle thanks to the rope's low weight and extremely pleasant handling. Its robust materials are designed for many years of use. The sheath is efficiently protected from dirt, thereby preventing damage to the rope. Despite its incredible durability, the rope also boasts a low weight. This not only comes into play on long approaches, but also when climbing itself and makes your way up much easier.
Dynamic cushioning
In addition, the Rope Rappel 8.6 mm half rope from Simond is equipped with a reduced impact force of 6.6 kN, which ensures soft and dynamic falls. Plus, the rope ends feature a special ultrasonic treatment that prevents any annoying fraying. The gliding properties of the rope ensure great handling both in the belay device and when clipping.
