Static rope with integrated cut resistance. This means high-strength aramid fibers are integrated into the rope sheath during the braiding process. As a result, the INTERSTATIC PROTECT has almost double the cut resistance compared to a static rope with a comparable sheath proportion and diameter. These characteristics, together with its low elongation values, make the INTERSTATIC PROTECT the first choice for all applications when the rope is exposed to sharp edges or whenever an additional safety margin is desirable.

EDELRID technologies
Thermo Shield
THERMO SHIELD is the basic treatment that we apply to all our ropes to ensure they have the renowned EDELRID suppleness. The treatment involves a thermal process that perfectly aligns the core and sheath yarns. A special heat treatment relaxes then shrinks the rope’s fibers. ...
Cut Protect
CUT PROTECT: The development of a new braiding process and the combination of highstrength aramid and polyester fibers enable us to produce ropes with a higher cut resistance that still comply with the standard for dynamic mountaineering ropes. As the current standard for ...
Tracer Thread Markings
TRACER THREADS: The diameter of all EDELRID static ropes and accessory cords can be quickly and unambiguously determined from the number of tracer thread markings on the sheath. -

World First in the Static Rope Sector: Reinforced by Aramid Fibers
The INTERSTATIC PROTECT is a real world first in the static rope sector. In a special braiding process, high-strength aramid fibres are braided into the rope sheath. Compared to polyester or polyamide, aramid has a significantly higher cut resistance. The result is a static rope with almost twice the cut resistance of ropes with comparable sheath content and diameter.
In the construction, we rely on dimensionally stable core yarns in combination with a fanned sheath. This combination ensures high breaking values, minimal shrinkage and low elongation behaviour under load. At the same time, thanks to the Thermo Shield treatment, the rope remains pleasantly soft to handle, making it easy to use with all abseiling and rescue equipment.
Sheath
Plied:
In this process, the yarns are wound in parallel on bobbins without twisting. Because the fibres are processed in parallel, maximum fibre utilisation is achieved and the technical values in terms of maximum breaking forces are the highest achievable. The only disadvantage is the somewhat lower abrasion resistance than with twisted constructions.
Core
Twisted:
The standard process for making core inserts. Depending on the respective construction, 3 basic twists (possibly 5 or 6) are twisted to form a core. In static ropes, 13 - 22 of these core plies form the load-bearing core.
