FEATURES
- 11mm UHMWPE Sling, rated to 22kN, CE and UIAA certified, made of lightweight and incredibly high strength UHMWPE material, perfect for trad climbing, alpine, mountaineering, canyoning.
- Sewn in neat bar-tack in place of bulky knot for high durability, and giving great handling. Flexible and pliable, easier to rack on the harness and quicker to extend in use.
- Absorbs significantly less water, UHMWPE slings are much less apt to freeze, ideal and indispensable for ice climbing, big routes alpine, mountaineering.
- Higher resistance to abrasion, offering a much extended abrading period against rocks. Combined with excellent resistance to UV, chemicals, slings are inherently durable and made especially for outdoors.
- Your ideal slings to build sturdy anchors, single point or equalized anchors; with carabiners to make your own extendable quickdraw; girth hitched to your harness to extend your belay device, get prepared for rappelling with the third hand; safe slings to rig your aerial yoga silk, to hang hammocks. Your versatile straps, tethers, leashes in daily recreational life.
What is UHMWPE?
UHMWPE, Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene, is known as a high-tech material widely used in climbing, sailing, and hiking for its unbeatable properties. UHMWPE is branded as Dyneema, Spectra, and other trade names by different companies. They share almost the same characteristics.
-
Lightweight. It's at present the best way to reduce weight when going outdoors.
Yield high strength. 15 times stronger than steel on the same weight basis.
Very low coefficient of friction and is self-lubricating.
-
High abrasion resistance. You can practically feel that when you try to cut off UHMWPE ropes or webbing.
-
Float on the water. UHMWPE has a density lower than water, which makes it widely used in water applications.
- Zero water absorption. Absorbs almost no water. Best materials for applications in wet or icy environments.
Take advantages of HIGH-TECH SLINGs!
Sewn in neat bar-tack in place of a bulky knot in the connection to keep a low profile and achieve higher durability. Offer great handling and easy use.
Flexible and pliable. It's easy to twist slings to rack it on the harness with a carabiner, and quicker to extend in use.
Absorbs significantly less water, UHMWPE slings are much less apt to freeze and keep high performance in ice and wet, indispensable gear for ice climbing.
Offering a much extended abrading period against rocks due to its unbeatable high abrasion resistance.
Combined with excellent resistance to UV, chemicals, slings are inherently durable, born for the outdoors.
GENERAL APPLICATIONS
- Build sturdy anchors: single point, or equalized anchors.
- Extendable quickdraws: with carabiners to make your own extendable quickdraw.
- Extend belay device: girth hitched to your harness to extend your belay device, get prepared for rappelling with the third hand.
- Other activities: safe slings to rig your aerial yoga silk, to hang hammocks. Your versatile straps, tethers, leashes in daily recreational life.
