rope age

rope age

If the need arises to determine the accurate age of the rope, the end of the rope may be cut open and the colour (fibre) indicator shall be consulted to determine the year of manufacture. The following is a key to the colour marking of the year of manufacture (this only applies to dynamic ropes produced by LANEX):

1990 red / blue
1991 red / green
1992 red / black
1993 green
1994 blue
1995 yellow
1996 black
1997 red / yellow
1998 blue / yellow
1999 green / yellow
2000 black / yellow
2001 red / blue
2002 red / green
2003 red / black
2004 green
2005 blue

The colours of the indicators are repeated in 11-year cycles. If you have any doubts regarding the age of the rope, send us an approx. 22 cm-long sample taken from the end of the rope. We will provide an accurate identification of the rope for you.
