TENDON Static 11.0 is a static rope with low elongation and high static strength, designed mainly for work at height and for securing people above a drop. The bigger the rope diameter, the higher its strength.

A type A rope has the required minimum strength of 22 kN and is designed for activities at height and above a drop, for example rescue, caving and similar activities.

Use

Intended for: work at height and securing people above a drop, activities at height and above a drop.

Activities: for example rescue, caving and similar activities.

Lifespan and inspection

Storage: the maximum storage time for an unused rope is up to 5 years, plus a service life of up to 10 years. The actual service life depends on how often and how intensively you use it. External influences and mechanical loading gradually reduce both the static and the dynamic performance of a static rope.

Inspection: the rope must be inspected at least once a year by the manufacturer or by a person authorised by the manufacturer, and the inspection must be recorded on its record card.

Check before use: check the rope before every use and, if you have any doubts about its safety, take it out of service immediately.

Tracer tape: a tracer tape runs inside the rope along its whole length and carries the manufacturer's mark, the rope type, the standard number, the year of manufacture and the material the rope is made from.
