Solutions for abseiling, rockclimbing and search & rescue teams

When it is a person hanging from a rigging system, safety is paramount. Ropes need to have breaking tolerances far higher than what might possibly be applied. Jeyco supplies a range of safety ropes are especially made by Cousin Trestec to meet the highest standards. There are two styles of safety rope commonly in use: static and dynamic.


Static rope

Static ropes exhibit increased stability and accuracy for access to work or rescue sites, changing sites and maintaining position. A type A rope allows easy movement up and down while hanging; a type B rope has a smaller diameter and is reserved for abseiling, using appropriate descenders. Static ropes are designed for comfortable use in combination with descenders and ascenders: most of these accessories require a rope of 10.5mm diameter to function optimally.

Dynamic rope

Dynamic ropes are designed to absorb the shock of a climber's fall. The most fundamental element in dynamic rope design is shock absorption: the residual shock the climber experiences during fall has to be minimal to prevent injury.


Jeyco provides the full range of static and dynamic safety ropes, suitable for:
  • Tree surgeons
  • Window cleaners
  • Private or state search and rescue teams
  • Military - swarming and abseiling
  • Recreational climbing
  • Speleologists
