SEGMENT 8 MM PETZL
Semi-static cord intended for the expert practice of speleology
The SEGMENT is a semi-static 8mm diameter cord for expert caving. Ultra-compact and lightweight, it is easily stored in the bag. It incorporates the EverFlex treatment that ensures the conservation of flexibility during use. The texture of the cover allows a good grip with the hand on the descent. The rope is served in a length of 200 meters.
Ultra-compact cord with good grip in the hand:
- Ultra-compact and light to limit the volume of the bags during long explorations.
- Thick case with a dense texture that offers a good hold in the hand.
- Excellent compromise between low elongation and elasticity reserve for effective ascents.
Preservation of flexibility over time:
- EverFlex treatment: treatment and braiding that make the cord more homogeneous; provides excellent grip in the hand and constant manageability over time.
- Easy to store in the bag, since the cord does not become rigid.
- Flexible cord to make and undo knots easier.
Excellent weight/durability ratio:
- Very light weight (43 g/m).
- Specific construction with polyester sheath and polyamide core that allows significant durability for its diameter.
