The Braided Safety Blue® White is a trendsetter among 16-strand climbing ropes. It combines features that ensure unparalleled safety, ergonomics, and durability. The blue core of Braided Safety Blue® is exposed when the rope suffers deep damage or has worn down to a certain point so that it should be discarded. As a full 12.7 mm rope, Braided Safety Blue® goes easy on your hands. This allows you to work longer and avoid injury. Where durability is concerned, Braided Safety Blue‘s® design and detailed workmanship are unrivaled. The additional step of plying the yarns in the strands results in a firmer, rounder, and more durable strand. Other 16-strand ropes skip this step, which makes them more susceptible to abrasion and thus also shortens their life spans.
