| Esprit
offers two types of water rescue rope: Lakeline and Riverline |
|
| |
|
|
| Lakeline
was designed for light marine applications and for use in water rescue
throw bags. It has a polyester sheath and polypropylene core.
The polyester adds strength and abrasion resistance and protects the core |
from harmful UV rays, extending the life of the rope. We use polyester instead
of nylon since it maintains its strength when wet, while nylon gets weaker
by 10-15%. Yellow Lakeline is stronger and more durable than economy
|
polyprolylene
water rescue ropes. Lakeline is bright for high visibility.
Not intended for rappelling due to the
low melting point of polypropylene. |

| Riverline
was designed for water rescue applications where higher strength and compactness
are required. It is similar to Lakeline in |
construction
but we've added Spectra for extra strength. Riverline is bright yellow
for high visibility. |
Not intended for rappelling due to the
low melting point of polypropylene. |
