“This is a nice line. It's light, but not too skinny. Holds its shape well. Good High Vis. It is not wearing too quickly. Satisfied.”

Sterling Rope's TriTech climbing line is a new 11mm rope with excellent durability and cut-resistance. The three-part construction of Technora sheath, Dyneema inner jacket, and nylon core gives this rope incredible abrasion-resistance and cut-resistance, making it ideal for it's primary purpose of cut-resistant lanyards. TriTech is strong, rugged, yet supple enough for easy positioning.
This rope is most popular for use in making cut-resistant fliplines and positioning lanyards.
In the 7/16” (11mm) diameter, Sterling TriTech has an average breaking strength of 8,325 lb and weighs 6 lb per 100’.
11mm (7/16”) • kernmantle • 8,092 MBS • 3% elongation at 300 lb • 5.6 lb per 100' • sewn eyes only
New kernmantle from Sterling for SRT! This line has the abrasion resistance of HTP with the softer hand and energy absorbtion that nylon provides. Stays round and works well in hardware like the Rope Runner, Akimbo, Rope Wrench. NFPA rating T and EN 1891. Excellent choice for single rope/work-positioning systems.
12.5mm (1/2”) • kernmantle • 10,565 MBS • 3% elongation at 300 lb • 7.4 lb per 100'
New 12.5mm (1/2”) size of this excellent kernmantle line. This line has the abrasion resistance of HTP with the softer hand and energy absorbtion that nylon provides. Stays round and works well in hardware that will take a 1/2” line. NFPA rating G and EN 1891. Excellent choice for single rope/work-positioning systems.

Rated: Disappointing Review by: Ryan
“I bought this rope for summer climbing with no gloves - larger diameter for holding better in theory. However it does not work well in various hardware: My CMI foot ascender and SAKA ascender scuffed it up pretty badly in a few spots, likely due to the teeth grabbing more aggressively on the thicker rope. It also does not work well through a rope wrench. I weigh 201 pounds and the rope will not slide through the wrench unless I am more or less at no rope angle with full weight on the line. A limb walk of any angle and I have to either thrust my weight into the line to get the wrench to engage or i have to grab the wrench itself to get slack while moving. Some times, if you're balancing precariously going out on a limb and put too much weight into your line, that amount of slack will tend and it can throw you off balance unexpectedly.
There's something to be said for less friction on the hitch overall since a lot of it gets stuck in the wrench, but...overall it is a pretty non ideal situation, especially since I am probably on the heavier spectrum for climbers. I would not recommend this line if you weigh less than I do.
It looks nice though, and the semi-static overall offers a fair amount of stability while climbing. I will not buy this line again, unfortunately.”
