HALF ROPES Separate ropes are anchored in alternating belaying points. This system reduces the risk of rope breakage by falling rocks and provides maximum protection in alpine conditions or on tough climbs
STANDARD Improved basic finishing of dynamic ropes. The new technological process enables to apply impregnation agents as early as the standard finishing of ropes is done. The result is an excellent water resistance and abrasion resistance as well as extended lifespan of TENDON ropes.
PROTECT SHIELD In addition to the standard finishing against water and abrasion, the sheath of the entire product is treated with the TENDON NANOTECHNOLOGY surface finish. Using the new progressive method of surface finishing called NANOTECHNOLOGY, TEFLON® in form of very small particles is applied to the rope sheath and very effectively prevents penetration of water, dust and other particles into the rope sheath in which way the water resistance and the abrasion resistance of the ropes are increased.
COMPLETE SHIELD The maximum level of protection of ropes with high water resistance and abrasion resistance. Using the new progressive method called NANOTECHNOLOGY, TEFLON® in form of very small particles is applied to the rope sheath as well as the rope core and forms an almost impermeable protective layer against water and dust that could damage the sheath or the core. COMPLETE SHIELD is a new impregnation which extends the general lifespan of TENDON ropes significantly.
COMPACT – COMPACT ENDING Our own special technology has been used for the ends of the rope. In a length of 15 mm, the core strand and sheath are connected into one unit.
BICOLOUR The rope is divided into two identical halves with a different sheath colour. It is advantageous for descending.
CE - SYMBOL OF COMPLIANCE The CE symbol on a product declares that the product is in compliance with all applicable regulations and has undergone all appropriate compliance evaluation procedures. The number after the CE symbol (e.g. 0408) indicates relevant accredited laboratory.
UIAA Products marked with this symbol meet UIAA requirements. The UIAA is the International Mountaineering and Climbing Federation.
