Maxi-Flip Lines
Maxi-Flip wire core flip lines have Free Flex end terminations to minimize the in-use wire rope axial fatigue. This provides the climber with the safest possible end termination.
Key Features
- Free Flex Flemish eye splice
- Lightweight
- Utilizes the best hardware available
The Maxi-Flip is available with a heavy duty standard or swivel snap on one or both ends. Maxi-Flip flip lines are available in many lengths and three diameters 1/2″, 5/8″, and 3/4″ and are coated in Maxijacket orange to maximize abrasion resistance.
The Maxi-Flip Sport wire core flip line offers a 16-strand cover which works great with mechanical hardware and is 25% lighter than the standard Maxi-Flip. Sticking to our guns, the Flemish eye splice is the safest end splice for wire core. The Sport is available with four choices of hardware including a swiveling carabineer or aluminum snap. Available in 1/2″ diameter and coated with Maxijacket red to maximize abrasion resistance.

* 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
