BEAL RESCUE VLS 11.3 mm Low Stretch Static Rope (Rescue, Hauling) Sold by the Meter

• The Beal RESCUE VLS 11.3mm is a "Very Low Stretch" static rope specifically designed for rescue missions and extreme loads. Its primary features are its extraordinary strength and near-zero elongation (VLS stands for Very Low Stretch), providing unparalleled stability for heavy-duty rescue and precision hauling operations.
• Very Low Elongation: Standard static ropes typically have an elongation rate of 3% to 4%, which can consume significant effort and time during hauling. The Rescue VLS rope features an ultra-static polyester construction with extremely low elongation of just 0.8% (at 50-150kg), purpose-built for technical rescue missions. This "very low stretch" effectively eliminates the bouncing effect during rescues and provides more precise handling, offering a distinct advantage in long-distance vertical rescues or high-line systems.
• Superior Breaking Strength: Boasting an incredible breaking strength of 36 kN. This rope is engineered for heavy-load rescues, mechanical advantage pulley systems, and high-risk search and rescue operations, offering the highest level of safety for both operators and subjects.
• Excellent Abrasion Resistance and Structural Stability: The thick, tightly woven sheath provides exceptional protection against abrasion. Even with frequent use in rugged disaster zones or industrial environments, the rope maintains structural integrity and is resistant to fraying or deformation caused by friction.
• Professional Application: Particularly well-suited for technical rope rescue scenarios, such as vertical rappelling, rescue lifting, and fixed systems. It minimizes energy loss due to rope absorption during hauling, making the operation more efficient and providing reliable support for rescue teams.
• Unique ID and Color Coding: Equipped with the dedicated idN (individual Numbering) and BCC (Beal Color Code) systems, allowing for clear management of rope usage and facilitating easy tracking, inspection, and maintenance to ensure safe operation.
• Certification : NFPA 1983:2012, CE.
• Cut-to-length rope - sold by the "meter." The quantity ordered corresponds to the number of meters supplied in a single continuous length.
  Example: Order 5 = 5 meters (continuous, uncut)
              Order 10 = 10 meters (continuous, uncut)
  If you require the rope to be cut into multiple segments, please specify this in the order notes (e.g., 5 meters x 2 segments).
• This item is cut to the length you order, so it counts as customized goods and falls under a reasonable exception to the 7-day cooling-off period for distance sales under Taiwan's Consumer Protection Act. The cooling-off period does not apply once the item has been cut; defective or wrongly shipped items can still be returned or exchanged.

Because this type of technical equipment is safety-critical, please confirm it suits your needs before ordering. Returns and exchanges follow our Refund Policy.
