Petzl Nomad 9.8 mm

Manufacturer's Description

Tie into the Nomad for sport climbs, alpine routes, or anything in-between. Durable thick sheath, superior handling and a well-tuned balance between dynamic elongation and impact force make this a perfect all around rope.

All Petzl rope sheaths make up at least 33% of the total weight of the rope, translating into superior core protection. Combined with a DuraTec dry treatment, Petzl ropes can withstand the abuse of rough granite and abrasive sandstone for countless pitches. All Petzl ropes are ready to use straight out of the package thanks to the special factory butterfly coil. To help prevent lowering and rappelling accidents, Petzl ropes are marked 6 meters from each end to alert climbers that the rope end is approaching. In addition, the middle of each cord is marked to facilitate safer descents.

Petzl Nomad Climbing Rope - Tie into the NOMAD Rock Climbing Rope from Petzl for sport climbs, alpine routes, or anything in-between. Thick sheath, superior handling and a well-tuned balance between dynamic elongation and impact force make this a perfect all-around rope. Duratec Dry treatment helps prevent the rope from absorbing water, which can weaken a rope and make it difficult to handle in freezing conditions. Before a Petzl rope is constructed, the core and sheath strands are individually treated, providing water repellencty in case you find yourself in a deluge, snowfield or on a dripping ice chandelier. All Petzl ropes are butterfly coiled in the factory and are ready to use straight out of the package. This coiling method means no more tangled mess when you first use your new rope. Gone is the tedious operation of carefully uncoiling, flaking and reflaking your new rope, only to end up with annoying kinks. With the NOMAD, just tie-in and start climbing. To help facilitate descents, the middle of each Petzl cord is marked with a black bar. Even with this marking, itâ??s sometimes a good idea to tie a knot at the end of the rope as an additional safety measure. The Petzl NOMAD Climbing Rope is crafted to be a solid performer in nearly any situation.
