9.5mm Eagle Light Protect Pro 60m 2xDry
Description
Based on the proven construction of the EAGLE LITE, we have developed a rope that is particularly robust and is still suitable for sport climbing and projecting routes. To this end, we use Protect technology, which incorporates high-strength aramid fibers into the sheath using a specially developed braiding process. This technology and the adjustment of other production parameters strengthen the sheath and increase the rope's cut resistance. For a particularly compact and fine sheath structure, the EAGLE LITE PROTECT PRO DRY is processed on a braiding machine with 48 bobbins, which has a positive impact on handling and abrasion resistance. These features make the EAGLE LITE PROTECT PRO DRY a reliable companion on demanding multi-pitch routes and big-wall adventures when climbing with single rope and additional tag line, where necessary.
- Thermo Shield treatment for perfect handling
- Durably water repellent and dirt resistant thanks to the Pro Dry finish
- 3D lap coiling enables instant use without tangles
- Higher sheath content and aramid processing for increased cut resistance under load, e.g. over sharp edges
- Meets the stringent requirements of the UIAA Water Repellent Test (water absorption less than 5% of its own weight)

The Eagle Lite Protect Pro Dry is no doubt a high-quality piece of equipment that offers some of Edelrid's visionary innovation in the field of dynamic climbing ropes. It strong cut resistance will allow you to consider a thinner rope in environments where rope cutting is of particular risk. In the UK it is maybe a bit of a niche product as we don't tend to climb on single ropes in the mountains where these risks are much more apparent. Therefore, the additional price tag may put many off. But if you're heading abroad for multi-pitch routes on Alpine granite then this rope together with a tag line could provide the perfect balance of peace of mind, performance and weight saving in comparison to a thicker rope.
