STATIC LOW STRETCH 11

This treatment harmonizes the gliding characteristics of the yarns inside the rope and ensures that it remains compact and supple throughout its life. It also ensures that the rope does not shrink or becomes stiff.

Tracer thread marking on the sheath. Edelrid developed the system for sheath tracer thread marking. It allows immediate identification of the diameter of static ropes and slings. The number of tracer threads sewn into the rope sheath indicates the diameter of the rope. For example, two tracer threads denote a 10 mm diameter, 2.5 tracer threads denote a 10.5 mm diameter.
