Yale Kernmaster Explore 11mm Climbing Rope

Yale Kernmaster 11mm Explore has good energy absorption and performs more like a 24-strand than other kernmantles, allowing for both access and DdRT climbing.

Kernmaster is a static-rappelling line constructed with a traditional “mantle” sleeve consisting of 48 strands of polyester. The inside, or “kern,” is a braided core of energy-absorbing nylon. The core is fully steam-stabilized to enhance the rope’s flexibility and prevent hardening in service. The braid also bends more easily and with less fatiguing of the core when cycled over sheaves.
