Features beal rando gdry 8mm (by the metre)
8mm glacier walking or ski touring rope.
8mm rope for glacier walking or ski touring. At 37g per metre, it is lightweight and packable without losing out on protection.- Dry Cover treatment increases resistance to wear resulting from abrasion; falls; dirt; the wet; and in so doing, significantly increasing its active lifetime.
- Golden Dry treatment: In addition to the performance of Dry Cover, Beal also enhances the durability of the core by another exclusive procedure. Every filament in the strands of the core is coated with a fluoride solution by a continuous process, which is then heat-set and polymerised onto the polyamide. Protecting the rope from water absorption eliminates weight increase, risk of freezing on cold weather climbs, and slows the wearing of the rope considerably.
- Compact Process: Beal's exclusive weaving process renders core and sheath as one, ensuring a perfect equilibrium in the rope and giving it these unique attributes:
