Notes:
DIAMETER - measured while weight hangs from rope,
affected by weave as well as amount of material
UIAA TYPE (click
here for graphic info)
TWIN ROPES OO - used in pairs, both Ropes must be clipped
to each protection point;
HALF ROPES 1/2 - used in pairs, each rope is clipped singly
to alternating (every other) protection point;
SINGLE ROPES 1 - used singly, the rope is clipped to each
protection point.
UIAA FALLS (click here for graphic info)
- general measure of overall durability in a "worst
case" scenario with 1.77 fall factor- see test diagram.
Comparable only within same UIAA Type as tests are preformed
with either 50 kg (half ropes - 5 fall min.) or 80 kg
mass (single ropes 5 fall min, and twin rope systems -
12 fall min).
SHARP EDGE FALLS - *new* category subjects rope
to .75mm "sharp edge" 1.77 fall factor drop
- no minimum requirement
IMPACT FORCE - the maximum force generated during
a test fall, lower force = softer "catch" 12kN
max for Single and Twin Rope Systems; 8 kN max for Half
Ropes
DYNAMIC ELONGATION - the % rope stretch occurring
during 1st Test Fall. 40% max.
STATIC ELONGATION - the % of rope stretch with
80 kg (176 lbs) simulating "climber" load. Must
be less than 10% for Single and Twin Rope Systems and
less than 20% for Half Ropes.
SHEATH SLIPPAGE - Test simulates descender wear
- 12-20mm allowed depending on Type.
WEIGHT PER METER - a better measure than Diameter
with which to compare different models .Heavier ropes
have more material and generally have better longevity,
* BEST USE (in ranking order) A = Alpine Rock &
Ice; I = Waterfall Ice; M = Mixed Rock & Ice, S =
Sport Climbing (falling, hanging, lowering); T = Trad
Rock (multi-pitch, placing protection); TR = Top Roping,
W = Big Walls & Aid Climbing
BOBBINS: low number = generally better abrasion
resistance; higher number - generally better dynamic performance
WEIGHT of SHEATH: lower % = greater flexibility
& smoother running; higher % = increased durability
and slightly stiffer running.
BICOLOR or BI-PATTERN sheath provides permanent
identification of the mid point; TRIOSAFE available in
certain Mammut models permanently marks middle and also
provides 5 meter warning of an approaching rope end.
OTHER LENGTHS: call for 50M prices, special lengths
up to 200M (660 ft) and current colors. |
