Kernmaster

Rope Characteristics

Static rappelling Kernmaster line constructed with a traditional “mantle” sleeve consisting of 48 strands of polyester. The inside or “kern” is a braided core of energy absorbing nylon.

The core is fully steam stabilized to enhance the rope’s flexibility and prevent hardening in service; the braid also bends more easily and with less fatiguing of the core when cycled over sheaves or dropped over a parapet. Sleeve is either white or solution cast fiber (colour added prior to yarn production), which makes for lasting colours and enhanced wear resistance.
