Grade A Manila Climbing Rope Our manila ropes are individually handcrafted with a technique known as splicing, the attachment end is braided back into itself to form a 6" loop Spicing is a superior method for attaching the rope with a safe weight load limit of over 5,000 pounds The loop ends of our climbing ropes are covered with a heavy duty nylon fabric to protect the loop from fraying The end of your climbing rope is finished off with a heavy duty vinyl handle to also protect the rope from fray. Manila climbing ropes can be used either in-door or outdoors, the manila fibers make for an easier climb up the rope but are tougher on your hands
