9.5 mm BEAL Aqualine

The Aqualine 9.5 is a rope ideal for technical canyons. It is a thin rope totally suited to advanced canyoning. However, the Aqualine 9.5 mm requires sustained attention during descent, as well as appropriate technique. With its bright color, this rope stands out easily and facilitates the descent technique with the rope at water level. The 9.5 mm diameter allows it to remain flexible after retraction to facilitate knots and kitting. Also, the Aqualine 9.5 mm has a very low elongation (only 2.4%) due to the presence of a static strand of Vecran inside. When retracting, the Aqualine 9.5 mm tends to warp slightly, because the Vectran does not retract, but this effect has no consequences for the use of the rope. Under the effect of repeated soakings the rope’s length may reduce by up to 10 %.
