heightec’s TECTRA™ 11mm low-stretch rope is a new generation of kernmantel rope, made from top quality polyamide nylon yarn with UV stabilisation treatment in full cross-section of the yarn.
TECTRA ropes have excellent handling characteristics and are durable and wear-resistant. A special termination process gives a perfect seal on rope ends.
High twist yarn gives excellent handling and ability to knot.
TECTRA ropes are specially designed for use in a wide range of situations and with modern rope devices.
Low stretch ropes are suitable for suspension of a load yet capable of absorbing energy in the case of a fall with a Fall Factor less than one.
The yarn is thermostabilised at different stages of production and treated for better handling and performance when wet.
The 11mm low-stretch rope is high strength, with good resistance to repeated falls. A special termination process gives a perfect seal on spool ends.
TECTRA ropes are specially designed for use with modern rope devices and are durable and wear resistant.
6.5% shrinkage, 5% elongation in use.
The sheath construction provides excellent protection against damage or pollution of the core and performs well with heightec rope devices.
