Imlay Canyon Rope 8mm
Imlay Canyon Rope 8mm
Imlay Canyon Rope 8mm is firmly woven for longest life, and uses 100% polyester to minimize water absorption. A nice handling static rope that works great for canyoneering. This is our lightest rope, intended for those times when lightness and economy are important and durability is not. It is not intended as an every-day rope.
The Canyon Fire rope is roughly 10% heavier and costlier, and at least twice as durable.
8mm rope is on the 5% longer program like the other ropes.
Color: Red White and Blue
The 8mm is for where the canyon is quite a ways from the road - and should be used around beginners with caution. The 300 footer makes a great Heaps rope if you are carrying it through. For most people, the Canyon Fire will be a better choice - twice as durable for about 10% more weight. Available in pre-cut lengths of 120, 200, 300 and 600 feet. Ordering by-the-foot is 10% more expensive than ordering the pre-cut lengths.
The 8mm has been discontinued as a main-line rope. We keep a little in stock for the afficionado who understands its limitations. The Canyon Fire replaced the 8mm, being about twice as durable for 10% more weight.
