This rope was designed specifically for the demanding needs of the professional arborist. 1/2” XTC-16 meets CE0598 EN1891 Type-B. XTC-16 is a tight braid consisting of 16 individual strands of polyester. A high-twist core of torque-balanced polyester keeps the construction firm and round, providing an extra safety measure. XTC-16 is an excellent choice for both climbing line and bull rope due to its no snagging, abrasion-resistant construction and excellent energy absorption characteristics.
Fire – Hi-visibility – now introducing the highest-visibility climbing line ever seen in the industry. Fire is specifically designed for the demanding needs of arborists, embodying the same characteristics of XTC-16 ropes Yale has made for the last two decades.
