Vertical Life Lines

Vertical Lifelines At Pelican Rope

 

Pelican Rope’s Vertical Lifelines are made with a 3-Strand Construction for the firmness needed in specialty applications. They are designed with high-strength polyester covers and durable cores. All of our Vertical Lifelines meet ANSI standards and are tested rigorously to ensure your security while you climb.

 

This page will focus on our carefully selected Vertical Lifelines. If you are looking for other types of rope, including rescue rope, other fall protection lanyards/fall protection gear, arborist climbing rope, mining ropes, marine gear, sailing equipment, or winching lines, those products are available in our other category pages.

 

For now, let’s keep our focus on the Vertical Lifelines listed in this section. If you are interested in learning about the features of these ropes and the differences between our varieties in Vertical Lifelines, let’s get started. 

 

What Are The Advantages Of 3-Strand Ropes?

 

The number of strands in a rope help to determine how stiff or bouncy a cord will be. The more strands that a rope has, the more stretch it will have. 3 Strand Ropes will give you a lot of control and very little bounce. A 24 strand or even 32 strand rope will offer great flexibility for applications like tree climbing, a very firm 3 strand rope will better provide the level of control required in lifelines.

 

The Breakdown On Rope Strand Counts:

 

  • Ropes With Higher Strand Counts Are Usually More Bouncy

  • Ropes With Lower Strand Counts Are Usually More Staticy/Stiff

  • The Stiffer The Rope, The More Control You Will Have In Your Line

 

Some Common Applications For 3-Strand Ropes:

 

  • Vertical Lifelines

  • Tower Positioning Lanyards

  • Some Treestand Positioning Ropes

  • Safety Lanyards And Fall Protection Lanyards

 

What Are Vertical Lifelines?

 

Pelican Rope engineered Vertical Lifelines, which are engineered to resist water absorption. Since they are made of Polyester, they also provide better grip and extra protection against abrasion. Vertical Lifelines are cords made to attach to a point above the climber. This attachment point could be from a ladder or from the top of a building. This system prevents slipping backward on a line, giving the climber extra security.

What Are Some Benefits Of Using Polyester In Rope?

 

Polyester is a versatile material that offers both strength and low stretch. It is a lightweight material with many features that make it useful. The fact that it maintains its strength when wet makes polyester a perfect material for outdoor use. It has a similar strength to a material like nylon but gives less stretch. The lower stretch rate makes polyester adds stability, making it a great choice for lifelines. 

 

Some Benefits Of Polyester:

 

  • Abrasion Resistant

  • Ideal For Outdoor Use

  • Doesn’t Lose Strength When Wet

  • Similar To Strength To Nylon With Less Stretch



What Is Composite Rope?

 

A composite rope is a cord that is made of two or more distinct materials. Some of these combinations may include nylon cores with polyester covers, or in the case of our Composite Vertical Lifeline, a Polyester Cover and Polyolefin core.

PELICAN ROPE  1/2" - Arborist-16™ Red Arborist Climbing Line

PELICAN ROPE  1/2" - Rig Master™ 3 Strand Composite Rope

Great Price

Tom H.
Quality as good as any other rope I've used. I have climbed trees for over 20 years. This rope works well for climbing, rigging, or pulling trees. I prefer a braided nylon for climbing (knot will allow faster descent then the twisted), however this rope surprised me how well it allowed descent. For the price, I will be ordering more..
