The Beal Iceline 8.1mm is perhaps one of the best ropes on the market for ice climbers and alpinists as well as expedition use. Lightweight, great longevity and easy running, the Beal Iceline is a fully treated rope with the UNICORE technology. Thanks to adherence of the core and sheath, the Iceline benefits from extra security – indispensable on thin rope. The Unicore technology is a process that bonds the sheath to the core in a way that if the sheath is cut or damaged you will get zero sheath slippage. The Golden Dry treatment ensures every individual core and sheath strand is treated with a hydrophobic chemical formula before the rope is manufactured. A Golden Dry rope combines 2 treatments: the core’s treatment is added to the Dry Cover sheath treatment. This helps to achieve an astonishingly durable and waterproof rope. The Iceline is the indispensable rope for winter and alpine environments. One you can certainly depend on.
Features:
- Ideal uses: Ice climbing, mixed climbing, alpine climbing, expeditions
- The weight and free-running of twin rope plus the advantages of a double rope.
- Ultra-low impact force.
- The rope doesn’t bunch and stays flexible for the long term.
- Has all the advantages of the UNICORE technology:
- An astonishing process, bonding rope sheath and core without affecting the rope’s suppleness. If the sheath is cut or torn, the core and sheath remain bonded together. With a standard rope, if the sheath is cut by abrasion over an edge, a frequent occurrence in the mountains, it slides and gathers over some metres. It then becomes impossible to pass this zone, whether ascending or descending.
- A GOLDEN DRY rope :
- Is more frost and water-resistant.
- Gains very little weight in humid conditions
- Improves rope suppleness through karabiners and belay devices.
- Is more abrasion resistant during normal use.
Eco Credentials:
- Beal dynamic ropes are all 100% recyclable.
- For each Beal rope sold, Beal plants a tree in Madagascar.
