Yale XTC Fire 12.6mm Climbing Rope - Orange / Red / Yellow - 1 Splice

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

The Yale XTC Fire 12.6mm Climbing Rope is a professional arborist climbing line developed for durability, visibility, and confident handling in demanding tree work environments. Part of the trusted XTC series, this rope uses a tight 16-strand construction made from polyester core and sheath, delivering a firm, round profile that performs consistently with both mechanical devices and traditional climbing techniques. The high-visibility fire colourway ensures the rope remains easy to track in the canopy and on the ground.

Durable 16-strand construction

The 16-strand braid provides a robust structure with strong resistance to abrasion and long-term wear. This construction creates a solid, rounded feel in the hand, supporting predictable rope behaviour during ascent, positioning, and descent. The polyester core and sheath help maintain stability under load while offering dependable performance during repeated climbing cycles.

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 extended working days. The rope weighs 112 g per metre, reflecting its durable build without unnecessary bulk. The polyester construction contributes to effective energy absorption, helping reduce shock loading and improving overall climbing comfort.

High visibility and certified performance

The distinctive orange, red, and yellow colour pattern is designed to maximise visibility in varied lighting and foliage conditions, supporting safer rope management during complex operations. Supplied with a professionally finished spliced eye, this rope integrates cleanly with common arborist systems. It is CE certified to EN 1891 Type A, confirming its suitability for professional tree climbing applications requiring reliable strength and controlled elongation.
