Strong and easy-to-knot 5mm nylon kernmantle construction climbing accessory cord, ideal for making up prusik loops as a backup for abseiling, for self-rescue, or for crevasse rescue.
- Kernmantle construction - a protective woven sheath with twisted core.
- Tie with a double-fisherman's knot for maximum security and strength.
- Cut ends should be sealed with a flame or hot-knife to prevent fraying.
- Meets CE and UIAA standards.
- 3 meters is enough to make x2 general purpose prusik loops for rock climbers and mountaineers.
- Also useful for making ice-thread anchors, or for use as abseil 'tat'.
- Please note that colour and pattern of sheath may vary.
