What’s the difference between static rope and safety rope?

The difference between static rope and safety rope. Ropes can be divided into static ropes and dynamic ropes according to their ductility. Ropes can be divided into safety ropes and non-safety ropes according to the size of applicable scenes. Static rope can be used as safety rope, which has more properties (high temperature resistance, fire prevention, etc.) than static rope.

Static Ropes are traditionally used in cave exploration and rescue, but they are often used in high altitude downhill, and even can be used as top rope protection in rock climbing halls. The static rope is designed to have as little elasticity as possible, so it can hardly absorb the impact force; Besides, static ropes are not as perfect as power ropes, so the elasticity of static ropes produced by different manufacturers and different countries and regions may be very different. The characteristic is that the ductility is much lower than that of dynamic rope.

Safety rope

Safety rope (safety rope; ) is generally used for firemen’s fire fighting and rescue, emergency rescue and disaster relief or daily training. Structure: sandwich rope, the load-bearing part is made of continuous fiber material, with high strength, small elongation, good impact resistance and high temperature resistance. Breaking strength: high; High temperature resistance: no melting and coking under the environment of 204℃ for 5MIN minutes.
