13 mm PMI® Isostatic Polyester Rope

The 13 mm PMI® Isostatic Polyester Rope is engineered for professional rope technicians who require exceptionally low elongation, high strength, and stable handling in specialized rigging and vertical applications. Its 100% polyester core and sheath construction make it particularly well suited for highlines and other systems where minimizing rope stretch is critical.

The 32-carrier construction is engineered to resist flattening under load, maintain a rounder profile, and reduce sheath slippage compared with conventional kernmantle polyester ropes. With a minimum breaking strength of 47.0 kN (10,572 lbf), the 13 mm Isostatic provides a robust solution for demanding rescue, rope access, tower, utility, and technical rigging operations.
