WWTc Rescue Rope's Tensile Strength

We have been testing our ropes' Tensile Strength at the University of Engineering Budapest. See video below.

The Results:

 

WWTc Rescue Rope 8mm (2011)

Tensile Strengh:               1031 kg

Knotted Tensile Strength:    703 kg

 

WWTc Rescue Rope 10mm (2011)

Tensile Strengh:               1777 kg

Knotted Tensile Strength:    1183 kg

 

(Please note, numbers apply to a new rope!)

 

 

From September 2020 this numbers have radically improved:

WWTc Rescue Rope 7.8mm

Tensile Strengh:               15kN (1500 kg)

WWTc Rescue Rope 9.3mm

Tensile Strengh:               21.5kN (2150kg)
