Description
Ultra-durable 11.7 mm arborist rope with slim splices, low elongation, and smooth performance through mechanical devices for SRT and DRT climbing.
FTC Argiope Evo Berry 11.7mm Climbing Rope
The FTC Argiope Evo Berry 11.7 mm is a high-performance arborist climbing rope built on proven innovation. It was the first rope ever developed with a slim splice thin enough to run smoothly through mechanical devices like the ZigZag, Spider Jack, and Freexion—and the EVO version refines that legacy even further.
Constructed from 100% polyester, the Argiope Evo maintains a constant diameter with zero swelling, even in demanding conditions. Its thick, abrasion-resistant cover delivers excellent durability while preserving a supple, responsive feel on ascent and descent.
Innovative Slim Splice Performance
The ultra-thin, flexible splice passes effortlessly through mechanical devices, setting the standard for compatibility. With no cover-to-core slippage, both rope ends can be spliced, giving climbers maximum versatility for work positioning and rescue setups.
Balanced Elongation for Comfort
With an elongation limited to 2.8%, the Argiope Evo strikes an ideal balance between static efficiency and dynamic comfort. It feels supportive under load without the harshness of ultra-static lines—perfect for long days in the canopy.
Built for SRT and DRT
Equally suited to SRT and DRT, this rope has been tested extensively—from rainforest expeditions to daily professional use across Europe. Feedback consistently confirms improved handling, durability, and overall performance compared to the original Argiope Blue.
Colour Options and Lengths
The Argiope Evo is available in Berry and Blue, sold by the metre or in standard lengths of 20 m to 60 m, with one or two splices. Custom lengths are also available on request.
