Skylotec Prusik Accessory Cord, 100 m Rolls
Skylotec Prusik Accessory Cord, 100 m Rolls
Polyamide accessory cord supplied on full 100 m rolls in diameters from 3 mm to 7 mm. It is the raw material for prusik loops, hauling systems, tag lines and general rigging, so most crews keep more than one diameter on the truck.
The cord is a reep construction in polyamide with a maximum service life of 10 years. The cord is certified to EN 564:2023. It works from minus 35 degrees C to 45 degrees C and can be hand washed at up to 40 degrees C. Colour varies by option so different diameters can be told apart on a busy rig.
Use it alongside a Rope Grip Scend belay and abseil device or with handled ascenders such as the Quick Up+. Full ranges in rope and cord and rope access.

Which diameter do I need for a prusik?
The friction hitch has to bite on the host rope, so the cord is normally two to three millimetres smaller than the line it grips. On a 9 mm working line, 6 mm cord is a common choice; the 5 mm suits thinner lines and smaller hauling systems.
Is it sold by the metre?
The options on this page are full 100 m rolls. Cut your own loops to the lengths your system needs.
How long does the cord last?
Maximum service life is 10 years from manufacture, subject to inspection and to how hard it has been worked. Hand wash at up to 40 degrees C and retire any cord with a damaged sheath.
