All Gear Copperhead 11.7mm Climbing Rope (200 ft)

All Gear Copperhead climbing rope is an 11.7 mm 24-strand arborist climbing line, and this 200 foot length suits tall trees and climbers who want rope to spare for SRS. The 24-strand cover gives a smooth, round line that works with friction hitches and mechanical devices.

Why 200 feet

A 150 foot line covers most trees in MRS, but SRS uses rope from the anchor to the ground, so tall trees and basal anchors eat length fast. A 200 foot Copperhead gives you room for a high tie-in, a long redirect, or a canopy anchor on a big tree, with enough tail left to stay safe. You can always cut a damaged section and still have a usable line.

Shorter lengths and other 24-strand lines are in our 24-strand climbing rope section.

Device fit and care

At 11.7 mm, Copperhead sits in the range most arborist devices and rope wrenches accept, but always check the device maker's rope list before pairing them. Test your hitch or device low to the ground on a new rope, because a fresh cover can run differently once it breaks in.

Keep the rope in a bag away from fuel, bar oil and battery acid, wash it as All Gear recommends, and inspect it end to end for cuts, glazing, and core shots. Retire it if in doubt. Life-support use must follow ANSI Z133, the manufacturer's instructions, and your training, and the gear should be inspected before every climb.

Mark the ends with the purchase date and keep a simple log of use, so you can track its life and know when it was last inspected.
