Salewa Ortles Master Cord 6MM Precut

"The new Ortles Master cord sets new standards in alpine climbing and technical mountaineering: it combines a high breaking strength of over 15 kilonewtons(Kn) with high UV resistance and low weight."

"The hybrid construction combines robust polyamide in the sheath with a core made of polyethylene, which has a high molecular weight (UHMW). The material u2013 also known as high-strength PE for the sake of simplicity u2013 is lighter and at the same time even stronger than steel and Kevlar. This combination ensures exceptional strength and excellent knotability."

"The pre-cut 6 mm cord comes with sealed, rounded ends and can be used in a variety of ways: as a Prusik sling, to build belays, for abseiling, as well as for filling hourglasses or for setting up a pulley system."

"The special Salewa color coding, which is also used on the Ortles Dyneema webbing sling, ensures easy handling: the uniform color system in green, blue, red and grey means that the lines are immediately recognized and correctly selected when climbing."
