Sterling Hollow Braid (Per Meter)
Description
Description
Sterling Hollow Braid (Per Meter) is a high-quality 12-strand polyester rope with exceptional strength and minimal stretch, featuring a double gimbal construction. This unique construction provides the rope with superior flexibility and a flat profile, making it perfect for manufacturing rigging slings and other arborist applications. The polyester is 100% solution-dyed, ensuring that the vibrant color patterns do not fade over time and always remain clearly identifiable. The rope is treated with a special polymer coating that maintains excellent knotability and hand feel without feeling stiff, while also providing significantly improved abrasion and snag resistance.
Features
- 12-strand polyester construction with double gimbal for maximum flexibility and a flat profile.
- High breaking strength and extremely low stretch (1.3% at 10% MBS).
- 100% solution-dyed polyester – colors won't fade, perfect for identification in the field.
- Polymer coating for increased durability, snag resistance, and UV protection without compromising knot retention.
- Ideal for rigging slings, whoopie slings, and other arborist rigging needs.
- Sold per meter – cut as needed for flexible length management.
- Lightweight design with an optimal strength-to-weight ratio for efficient handling in the treetop.
