Technical Rescue & Industrial Safety Ropes
Low Elongation, NFPA
     
Esprit low elongation ropes are strong, abrasion resistant and have exceptional handling. They are supple with No speed bumps here. Our coloured ropes are staggered with white for a stronger, more durable and drier sheath. The white yarn also reduces the amount of stiffening that occurs when the ropes get older.
excellent knotability. Our specially designed three strand cabled core absorbs energy and reduces impact force when the system is shock loaded. This unique core is also more cut resistant and survives an over the edge fall better than single twist cores, providing the user with greater fall protection.   Uniform alignment and tensioning give a smooth rappel.
     
Esprit low elongation rescue ropes are available in 2 different styles: Streamline and Supplejacket. Both are certified to NFPA.
     

Streamline (SL) - Built with a 48 pic sheath for superior handling. We named it Streamline because we've taken the traditional 16 pic static rope and streamlined it for superior performance. Streamline has a lighter sheath than Supplejacket and yet it is a stronger rope. Knots are easy to tie and set. Streamline has a higher working elongation which is more forgiving if the system is shock loaded.
