Introduction to rock climbing protection ropes
Modern climbing equipment must comply with strict international design standards and Made based on user expectations. This is particularly important for belay ropes. Ropes are perhaps the most important piece of equipment in your climbing arsenal. The impact and abrasion of a fall often causes the rope to snap without any signs of breaking. Therefore, many people need to replace the protective rope frequently. So as a climber, I have many questions. For example: how to make a protective rope, how to choose the best protective rope, how to protect a rope, what is the lifespan of a rope, what do all these technical standards mean, what is the knot rate, what is the CE mark, what are the slip and fall factors? Which, etc. BEAL protection rope has three basic concepts: program system (Program System), safety control (SafeControl) and dry protection (Dry).
·Programmed system: This is a BEAL proprietary concept and has obtained international patent rights. It refers to the use of computers to control the production process so that the ropes have different tensions on different lengths, and the ropes are The braiding at 1.5 meters at both ends is softer to facilitate knotting, while the subsequent 4 meters is harder to withstand greater impact and reduce wear. The rest of the middle part is also softer, making it easier to operate the rope. The "programmed system" can double the life of the rope, which is more conducive to climbing.
·Safety Controls: Even the most experienced climbers sometimes fail to pay attention. The so-called safety production control can remind climbers to see the midpoint and reduce accidental falls. This patented production process simply changes the design of the rope hub without breaking the filaments inside the rope.
·Dry protection: This design can prevent the rope from becoming slippery due to moisture absorption. If the rope does not get wet in a cold place, it can also prevent the rope from becoming rigid due to moisture condensation. This dryness protection (also called impermeability) also reduces rope wear and tear.
·Two-color design: Double rope (Halfrope&Twinrope) color change when the rope is interrupted.
