Yale XTC Fire 12.6mm 5m Climbing Rope - 1 Splice

Yale XTC Fire 12.6mm 5m Climbing Rope – Orange / Red / Yellow – 1 Splice

The Yale XTC Fire 12.6mm 5m Climbing Rope is a professional arborist line developed for visibility, durability, and confident handling in demanding tree work environments. Part of the trusted XTC series, this rope features a tight 16-strand construction using a polyester core and sheath, delivering a firm, round feel that performs reliably with climbing devices and traditional techniques. Supplied in a compact 5 m length, it is well suited to short systems, extensions, and specialist setups where a full-length rope is not required.

Durable 16-strand construction

The 16-strand braid provides strong resistance to abrasion while maintaining a consistent, rounded profile in the hand. This construction supports predictable rope behaviour during ascent, work positioning, and descent. Polyester fibres help maintain stability under load and contribute to long-term durability during repeated professional use.

Optimised diameter and energy absorption

With a 12.6 mm diameter, the XTC Fire offers a substantial, confidence-inspiring grip that many arborists prefer for controlled movement and device interaction. The rope weighs 112 g per metre, reflecting its robust build. Polyester construction supports effective energy absorption, helping reduce shock loading and improving comfort during climbing.

High visibility and certified performance

The distinctive fire colour pattern combines bright yellow, orange, and red for excellent visibility in the canopy and on the ground, aiding rope management in varied working conditions. This rope is supplied with a professionally finished spliced eye for clean integration with arborist systems. It is CE certified to EN 1891 Type A, confirming suitability for professional tree climbing applications requiring dependable strength and controlled elongation.
