ClimbingRiggingPro grade

The Yale Beeline prusik loop is a 10mm loop of Beeline hitch cord fitted with a steel ring. Climbers use it to build adjustable friction savers and anchors, as a backup hitch, or to grab a line when rigging small pieces.

What climbers do with it

A loop with a ring is a small piece that solves a lot of problems. Tied as a prusik around a sling or a second rope, it makes an adjustable anchor point. Paired with a larger ring on a sling, it becomes part of a friction saver that protects the cambium and makes retrieval easier.

On the ground, a prusik loop with a ring is a quick grab on a lowering line or a way to hang a pulley for a small redirect. The steel ring gives a durable, smooth attachment that takes wear from rope and carabiners.

Because the loop is pre-made, you skip tying and dressing a double fisherman's, and the finished loop stays a consistent length for a repeatable setup every time you rebuild your saver or anchor.

Fit and care

Beeline is built as a hitch cord, so it grips well on common climbing lines and holds up to heat. Still, every hitch depends on the line it is tied to, so test any new combination low to the ground.

Inspect the cord and stitching before each use for glazing, flat spots and cuts, and check the ring for grooves or burrs. Use it only within Yale's instructions and ANSI Z133 practice, and get trained before relying on it for life support. More options are in our hitch cord and split tails section.
