DRY COVER
Each filament of the sheath of «Dry Cover» ropes is treated with a water repellent chemical before the rope is manufactured.
This chemical covering is polymerised at high temperature.
The durability of this treatment is given by the polymerisation, but also because of the individual treatment of each filament before the rope is made.
On a Dry Cover rope, the core is not treated.

Key features
• Improved resistance to grit and to humidity
• Limited water absorption
• Improved rope-running through karabiners and belay devices
• Improved abrasion resistance in normal climbing use.

STRONGS POINTS:
• Excellent balance between weight and durability.
• Low impact force and high number of falls sustained.

STRONGS POINTS:
• Great reserves of security in intensive use.
• Exceptional edge-resistance.
• A sheath capable of withstanding the constraints of Big Wall climbing.
