Beal Ice Line 8.1mm Unicore 60m Dry Cover Dynamic Rope

Beal Ice Line 8.1mm Unicore 60m Dry Cover Dynamic Rope

Already considered to be the must-have rope for ice climbers and expert alpinists alike for its extreme fluidity and very low impact force, ICE LINE is henceforward available with the new UNICORE technology. 

Thanks to adherence of the core and sheath, ICE LINE benefits from extra security – indispensable on thin rope.

The Intensive ropes are designed for hard work in the mountains. Every individual sheath strand has been Dry Cover treated to provide astonishing results: an increase in durability, moisture resistance and suppleness whilst reducing overall weight.

STRONGS POINTS :

• 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.

USES  :

Ice climbers and expert climbers.

Double rope 

Dry Cover Treatment

A process whereby every individual sheath strand receives a chemical treatment before the rope is manufactured. The treatment is hydrophobic, increases abrasion resistance and is polymerised at high temperatures. The polymerisation process together with every strand being coated individually increases the life of the treatment. This treatment makes ropes more resistant against abrasion, repeated falls, heat, dust, moisture and vastly increases their durability.

Key features

• Very limited weight gain in wet conditions.
• Prevents the rope thickening too much.
• Improved rope-running through karabiners and belay devices.
• Improved abrasion resistance in normal climbing use.

• Impact force: BEAL Guaranty 4.9 kN / UIAA Laboratory 4.8 - 4.9 kN
• Number of falls: BEAL Guaranty 6 / UIAA Laboratory 6-7
• Sheath percentage: 41 %
• Weight per metre: 39 g
