(for Climbing Line click here)
When you are rigging down tree limbs or chunking down a tree, you may have loads weighing several hundred pounds exerting thousands of pounds of force on your rigging rope. WesSpur stocks a wide range of tree rigging ropes so that you can find exactly the right bull line for your job. Need advice on selecting the right rigging rope? Feel free to contact us online or call for a recommendation.
Protect your investment in your rigging rope with an arborist rope bag.
You may safely retire a climbing line to use as a light-duty lowering line, but you should never climb on a piece of rope which has been used for rigging. Never mix your personal climbing rope and your rigging rope!
