Tendon Speleo Special 10.5mm - Developed Especially For Cave Exploring
The Tendon Speleo 10.5 Special rope with polyester sheath was designed for the high abrasion activities of cavers, but these same features excel in Fire Fighting and rescue work where high heat and high abrasion are just part of the job.
This rope was developed especially for cave exploring. It is outstanding for its low elongation, high static strength and exceptional resistance to wear.
This version of the Speleo has a sheath made of PES and a core made of PA. Thanks to the use of this combination of materials, the rope is more wear resistant and is able to withstand the higher temperatures caused, for example, by fast descending.
