  2. Dynamic rope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_rope

    Unlike most climbing equipment, dynamic ropes do not have a rated tensile breaking strength. Instead, the strength of a rope is tested by the number of standard test falls a rope can sustain before breaking. The test falls use an 80 kg weight for single ropes (55 kg for half ropes), and a fall factor of 1.7 (4 meter fall on 2.3 meters of rope ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope

    Rope may be constructed of any long, stringy, fibrous material (e.g., rattan, a natural material), but generally is constructed of certain natural or synthetic fibres. [1] [2] [3] Synthetic fibre ropes are significantly stronger than their natural fibre counterparts, they have a higher tensile strength, they are more resistant to rotting than ropes created from natural fibres, and they can be ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernmantle_rope

    Kernmantle rope (from German kern 'core' and mantel 'sheath') is rope constructed with its interior core protected by a woven exterior sheath designed to optimize strength, durability, and flexibility. The core fibers provide the tensile strength of the rope, while the sheath protects the core from abrasion during use. This is the only ...

    Manila rope is a type of rope made from manila hemp. Manila rope is very durable, flexible, and resistant to salt water damage, allowing its use in rope, hawsers, ships' lines, and fishing nets. [22] A 1 inch (2.5 cm) rope can require 4 metric tons (8,800 lb) to break. [27]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly_system

    The rope was often referred to simply as manila. Use of manila had a number of issues. Splinters of fiber could get into hands and eyes. Humidity and temperature changes could significantly affect the length of the rope. Over time the rope slowly rots. Synthetic rope can reduce or eliminate these issues, while providing greater strength by volume.

  7. Natural rope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_rope

    A natural rope is a rope that is made from natural fibers. [1] These fibers are obtained from organic material (such as materials produced by plants). [ 2 ] Natural ropes suffer from many problems including susceptibility to rotting , degradation, mildew [ 1 ] and wear out very quickly.
