BLUEWATER 8MM VT PRUSIK

$29.61

The VT Prusik is a versatile open-end Prusik. The VT performs well when used for ascending, self-belay while rappelling, as a traveling rope grab, or in conjunction with a Prusik minding pulley in haul systems.

Description

This specialty design features a tough, heat resistant Technora aramid sheath over durable nylon core strands. The core in this kernmantle design keeps the VT from flattening and binding up. A computerized large gauge sewing machine is used to bar tack a devilishly strong stitch with our custom Technora thread. This thread / stitch combination yields superior strength and overall durability.  Use to tie: Symmetric Prusik, Asymmetric Prusik (Schwabisch/Distal), Valdotain Tresse, French Prusik.

Manufactured in the U.S.A.
