Technology:

Endura Dry

• What it is:
  • The core fibers are coated with a water blocking coating and wrapped in a protective cover surrounds the core to
  • The fibers are coated with a protectant, allowing for a reduction in friction on the fibers themselves.
• What it does:
  • Repels water to keep the rope dry and protects the rope against damage from friction and abrasion

Endura Dry 2X

• What is it:
  • The same process as the Endura Dry but treated twice, the most water repellent Maxim rope
• What it does:
  • Adds an extra layer of protection from water and abrasion damage

BiPattern

• What it is:
  • A stitch in weave pattern at the center of the rope

• What it does:
  • Allows you to find the midpoint of the rope easily without compromising strength

TPT Sheath

• What it is:
  • A unique 1-over-1 pattern that produces a cover sheath with a smaller cross-sectional profile than plain pattern sheaths
• What it does:
  • Ensures improved abrasion resistance and reduces drag through belay and rappel devices allowing the rope to last longer
