Arborist Tree climbing ropes are meticulously engineered to cater to the rigorous demands of professional tree climbers and arborists. These ropes are designed to be durable yet flexible enough to withstand the friction of climbing trees, providing the essential support needed for tree climbing activities.
Our products meet the arboriculture safety standards for equipment utilized in pruning, maintaining, or removing trees, ensuring that you have access to ropes you can trust at a price point that suits you. Plus, enjoy free shipping on all orders as standard.
Tree climbing, regardless of the rope used, poses risks. The Z133 Safety Standard recommends replacing tree climbing ropes annually for your safety.
Designed with minimal stretch to offer necessary support for climbing trees and serving as a throw line, our tree climbing ropes are also brightly coloured for high visibility during climbing and rigging tasks.
While personal preferences vary among tree workers, most ropes are crafted with either a braided or kernmantle weave, featuring at least 16 strands. We recommend a double braid construction for optimal performance. Our ropes also come with non-slip sheathing for abrasion resistance, friction endurance, and secure knot holding.
Our selection includes high-quality options from Southern Ropes, Donaghys, and Marlow, cut to order to fulfill your specific tree climbing rope needs.
Choosing the right rope for tree work involves considering several factors, including the rope’s intended use, whether for climbing or rigging. While preferences vary, many professionals opt for the Donaghys Cougar Blue or Orange 24 strand rope for its reliability and performance worldwide.
For tree climbing, static ropes that offer limited stretch are preferable as they provide stability and energy conservation. The diameter and weight of the rope are also important considerations based on your specific needs.
A rigging rope, essential for pruning and tree removal tasks, ensures smooth lowering of limbs to the ground, usually facilitated by a pulley system.
It’s crucial to select a rope specifically designed for climbing or rigging due to their distinct compositions. Additionally, opting for a brightly coloured rope enhances visibility among foliage, crucial for quick and safe operations.
The optimal choice for outdoor tree climbing ropes depends on the environmental conditions. Polypropylene ropes, ideal for water applications due to their mould resistance, may not suit tree climbing due to their stretchiness. Nylon ropes, known for their durability and abrasion resistance, are suitable for weight-bearing tasks but lose strength when wet. Polyester ropes offer robust performance, retaining strength in wet conditions and resisting chemicals, making them a versatile choice for outdoor use, especially with a polyester core for added durability.
