XTC-24: Blue Moon 11.7mm
Innovative lightweight arborist climbing lines in 11.7mm sizing. Our range of 24 carrier products is ideally suited for MRS or SRS climbing with compatible hardware or hitch tending climbing systems.
Key Features
- Competition grade
- Smoothest cover for mechanical ascension
- Lowest elongation results in minimal bounce
- Smaller diameters are also favorable for recreational climbers
Blue Moon is larger in the hand – same peak performance – A true 11.7mm diameter that combines the lightweight characteristics of 11mm ropes and the more conventional sizing of the 1/2″ climbing lines. Blue Moon incorporates our 24-strand “Tite-Braid” cover that virtually eliminates cover milking. The braided- lament polyester core creates a firm rope that provides superior working-flex service life without work hardening.

| Product (Text) | Diameter (mm) | Average Break Strength *(Lbs) | Suggested Design Factor 10:1 **(Lbs) | Weight (Lbs/100f) |
| Blue Moon | 11.7 | 6,500 | 650 | 6.5 |
| Product (Text) | Diameter (mm) | Average Break Strength *(kg) | Suggested Design Factor 10:1 **(kg) | Weight (Kg/100m) |

* Average break strength is based on spliced rope or capstans samples. Knots and abrupt bends significantly reduce the strength of all ropes and lower the design factor.
** Suggested design factor is based on static or moderately dynamic lifting/pulling operations. Instantaneous changes in load, up or down, in excess of 10% of the rope’s suggested design factor constitute hazardous shock load and would void the suggested design factor recommendation. The end user is responsible for choosing the correct design factor specific to their application.
