Beal Verdon 9 mm Rope 50m

The Beal Verdon is engineered for experienced climbers tackling challenging traditional climbing and adventure routes on long, wandering multi-pitch terrain. Its 9 mm diameter and Golden Dry treatment provide essential water and frost resistance, ensuring reliable performance in alpine conditions and humid environments. The rope’s combination of a low impact force and a high number of UIAA falls offers both a soft catch and exceptional durability. Features like UniCore safety technology and Thermo Fluid treatment deliver superior handling and abrasion resistance for granite and mixed climbs.

Key Features

• Rope Type & Certification: Certified Half Rope (Double Rope) to EN 892 and UIAA standards.

• Dry Treatment: Golden Dry treatment on both the core and sheath for maximum water repellency.

• Diameter & Weight: 9.0 mm diameter, weighing 48 grams per meter.

• Fall Safety Rating: Withstands 15 UIAA falls as a half rope.

• Impact Force: 5.3 kN (5.4 kN in some tests) when used as a half rope, ensuring a soft catch.

• Core Technology: Features UniCore technology for enhanced safety and sheath-core integrity.

• Sheath Construction: 39% sheath proportion, designed for durability and smooth handling through karabiners.

• Material: Made from Polyamide (Nylon), crafted with Nexis fibers and Bluesign® approved materials.

Key Points

• Gold Standard Dry Treatment: The Golden Dry process treats every filament of the core and sheath before braiding, offering superior, longer-lasting water and dirt resistance compared to standard surface coatings.

• Elite Safety Performance: Exceeds minimum UIAA requirements by a wide margin with 15 certified falls (vs. a required minimum of 5), paired with a very low impact force, setting a benchmark for half-rope security.

• Optimized for Demanding Terrain: Specifically designed for long routes and traditional climbing, where its half-rope design reduces rope drag on wandering pitches and allows for full-length rappels with two ropes.

• Enhanced Durability & Handling: The Thermo Fluid treatment stabilizes sheath fibers for a more compact, supple rope that handles smoothly and resists abrasion during normal use.
