i
and will shrink when drying.
The result is that all
fi
bres become
more densely aligned and the sheath
sits tighter around the core of the rope.
This will make the rope more solid and
will consequently result in less mantle
slippage and deformation and thereby
lead to better grip in the Ascender.
2. Oil dissolution
During the production process some
oil is added to the rope
fi
bres in order
to reduce the friction between the
individual
fi
bres. When soaking the
rope in cold water some surface oil
in the sheath of the rope will dissolve.
This will contribute further to a better
grip. Do not soak ropes in warm water,
this will lead to greater dissolution of
oil, which will have a negative impact
on the rope properties.
A new rope will get an increased service life if it is soaked in cold
water before the
fi
rst use.
Avoid getting sand or dirt onto/into the ropes since it will wear the
Rope Grab and Rope Guide. Use a rope mat, rope bag or similar.
Always make sure that the rope is in good condition.
