Heightec TECTRE | 11mm Low Stretch Rope - White

Product Description

Heightec’s TECTRA 11 mm low-stretch rope is a high-performance kernmantel rope designed for professional rope access, rescue, and work-at-height applications. Constructed using premium polyamide (nylon) yarn, the rope incorporates full cross-section UV stabilisation for enhanced durability and weather resistance in outdoor environments.

With a balance of low stretch, high strength, and excellent handling, TECTRA is built to perform under load while still providing limited shock absorption in cases of low-impact falls (Fall Factor <1). Its construction makes it ideal for use with modern rope devices across a variety of technical rescue and suspension systems.

Product Features

• UV-Stabilised Nylon Construction
  Made with top-quality polyamide yarn, treated with UV stabilisation throughout the full cross-section to resist degradation from sunlight and extend the rope’s working life.

• Superior Handling and Knotability
  The high-twist yarn design offers excellent flexibility, making the rope easy to manage, tie, and untie, even after repeated use or exposure to wet conditions.

• Low Stretch with Energy Absorption
  Provides controlled elongation (5%) suitable for suspending loads while still absorbing limited dynamic force in low-factor falls.

• Thermo-Stabilised Yarn
  The rope undergoes thermo-stabilisation at key production stages, improving consistency, reducing shrinkage (6.5%), and enhancing performance in wet or changing environments.

• Device Compatibility
  Designed for smooth operation with a wide range of modern rope devices, making it a versatile choice for rope access, fall protection systems, and technical rescue scenarios.
