Technical Specification

A must have for adverture terrain.

The OPERA 8.5MM rope is the classic rope for adventure terrain, designed to be an excellent compromise between strength and lightness, this rope is perfect for big wall climbing, crag climbing and mountaineering. It is characterized by its low impact force and resistance to a high number of falls. Also, the rope does not swell and stays flexible longer. It is also worth noting that it allows you to escape on rappel even if the sheath is cut thanks to the UNICORE technology.

Unicore An astonishing process, bonding rope sheath and core without affecting the rope's suppleness.

Even in the toughest conditions of use sheath slippage is suppressed.

If the sheath is cut or torn, sheath and core remain bonded together.

With a standard rope, if the sheath is cut by abrasion over an edge, it slides and gathers over some metres.

It then becomes impossible to pass this zone, either to ascend or to descend.

If the problem occurs near to the end of the rope the sheath may slide off completely resulting in a fall to the ground.

With the UNICORE process the sheath remains in place and the user may escape, either by descent or ascent, taking all necessary precautions.

The user is not stuck without a solution on the rope.

A true classic reinforced by UNICORE technology

Already technically complex and robust enough to withstand the most demanding conditions, it is now reinforced by all the advantages of the UNICORE technology. This technology makes the core and the sheath of the rope integral for greater resistance to friction and increased safety.
