Beal launches a light rope with only 48 g per meter and 8.5 mm in diameter, it is an example of the commitment that the brand has made for the most advanced technologies.
The
Opera 8.5 has triple approval for use in single, double and twin, which will delight both expert climbers and mountaineers, who are looking for lightness, gliding and safety, or those who seek a versatile rope for routes along edges or classic, mixed or snow routes.
Ultra-slippery and ultra-light, it has been endowed with
Golden Dry protection approved as
UIAA Water Repellent , and the new
Thermo Fluid technology, an infrared treatment that stabilizes and reinforces the homogeneity of the fibers of the sheath, resulting in a more compact and manageable rope.
Beal's
Unicore technology has managed to unify the core and the sheath of these dynamic strings to limit the movements between the 2 parts and optimize their operation. They swell less, are more flexible, easier to handle, and last longer.
Each Beal rope also has an
Individual Identification Number which appears both on the end of the rope and on the individual identity card. This guarantees lifetime traceability and foolproof product tracking.
