32 Plait Polyester Jacket with Plaited Nylon Core - Low Stretch Kernmantle
The Donaghys **Response LSK®** is a high-performance, fully certified static safety line engineered for the most demanding height access, rescue, and abseiling applications. This rope combines the best qualities of two high-tenacity fibres in a premium **Kernmantle construction** for ultimate reliability.
Key Features and Construction
As a Low Stretch Kernmantle (LSK) line, the design is a sophisticated blend of a load-bearing core protected by a durable exterior sheath:
- Core (Strength): Features a high-strength **Plaited Nylon Core** to deliver the necessary tensile strength and moderate energy absorption required of a static line.
- Jacket (Protection): Encased in a **32 Plait High-Tenacity Polyester Jacket**. The high plait count creates a smooth, supple, and responsive feel, while the Polyester fibre provides superior **abrasion resistance** and excellent **UV stability**.
- Low Elongation: The engineered construction, including the Nylon core and manufacturing process, results in a highly effective **Low Stretch** rope for stable static descent and precise positioning.
Certified Performance for Safety
The Response LSK® is designed to be responsive, reliable, and compatible with certified hardware, ensuring peace of mind for professional users.
