FINISHES

• Middle Marc: Marking the middle of the rope with an unequivocal black sign that tells us that the middle of the rope is being crossed while belaying, or that serves as a reference when setting up a rappel.
• 8 Mark: Fixe's patent that uses a mark on both ends of the rope to indicate that there are only 8 meters left before the rope runs out. A simple but very effective system to avoid accidents and confusion both in getting off the lead and in rappelling.
• Reflector: This rope has 1 reflector at each end to be able to identify the ropes more quickly when light conditions are very low. It is very useful if you are one of the climbers who spends the daylight hours, as it speeds up the folding and storage of the rope. Essential for night rappelling
• Ultrasonic Cut: This rope features ultrasonic cut ends instead of the usual thermal cut in most ropes on the market. This ensures that the fibers of the core of the rope and the sheath are welded and prevents the sheath from slipping at the ends.

FULL DRY treatment

The Full Dry treatment that this rope incorporates means that both the core and the cover incorporate water-repellent characteristics, making it practically waterproof, perfect for use in extreme situations of humidity, water or ice.
Thanks to the Full DRY system of this rope, it is resistant to water, oil, grease, dust... achieving brutal durability.

ENDURANCE construction

Fixe has developed a manufacturing system called ENDURANCE, which achieves durability performance of more than 30% of the useful life of the rope in relation to ropes that are not manufactured under this new system. Using 48 threads, instead of the usual 40 on the market, they achieve more durable ropes, with less friction and excellent handling and flexibility.

FUSION

Fixe has patented the FUSION system that incorporates this rope. This system joins the rope sheath with the core, achieving a more uniform assembly and preventing the shirt from slipping with use. This way the rope will be more uniform and will maintain its performance for much longer.
