STATIC CLIMBING ROPES

WHEN TO USE STATIC ROPES
As a safe and stable rope for access to working positions at heights and working while attached to the rope, which is a component of a personal safety equipment.
It successfully replaces the traditional 3-strand rope.
Selecting a static rope

A lower percentage of elongation means there is less yo-yoing in fixed position and the descender runs smoothly. Ropes of type B have a lower breaking strength compared to type A.
Must pay attention when using type B rope.

Instructions for use
Before first use the rope has to be immersed in water and left to dry gradually while protected from direct sunlight and kept away from any source of heat.


"Sécurité INDUSTRIE"
The most versatile of all static ropes. Comfortable, low elongation.
With braided cover in polyamide 6.6 for superior heat resistance.

Ø 9 mm : light, supple and compact. Very comfortable for long descending.
For experienced users only.
Ø 9.6 mm : New super-static technology. A unique elasticity limiter combines comfort and safety and avoids completely the effect of yo-yoing during an intervention on high length. For experienced users only.
Ø 10.5 mm : also exists with a marker thread on the outside of the cover with a yearly-changing colour.
Ø 11 mm : more resistant and heavier. For use on ascenders and descenders requiring a big diameter rope.

"Sécurité INDUSTRIE PRO"
New range of static ropes.
Lighter and perfectly adapted to the new generation of descenders and blockers.

Their tightly closed cover limits abrasion by dirt, sand and mud which cannot enter into the core anymore.

Ø 12.5 : offers better handling, is much appreciated for intensive use.

Lifetime of Static climbing ropes
Product lifetime depends on the frequency and the type of use.
A rope could incur irreparable damage due to use at any moment in its lifetime. Avoid all abrasive material and influences, mechanical contact (sharp edges) and contact with chemicals (acids, petrochemicals, etc) .
Damage may not be apparent at first sight when the fibres in the rope's core are affected. Testing of individual ropes is needed.

Average service life :
- intensive use : 3 months up to 1 year
- normal use : 2 to 3 years
- occasional use : 4 to 5 years
In any case, the lifetime of a rope must never exceed 5 years.
