TREE CARE SPECIFIC: Designed exclusively for arborists, featuring a low-stretch kernmantle construction that maximizes efficiency and minimizes bounce while moving through the canopy. EXCELLENT GRIP: The larger 12.5 mm diameter ensures superior ergonomics, providing an excellent, fatigue-reducing grip that is particularly beneficial during long climbs or manual hauling. ZIGZAG COMPATIBLE: Features a patented, ultra-compact splice (available at one or two ends) that is small enough to pass directly through the friction chain of the ZIGZAG and ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical Prusiks. EVERFLEX TECHNOLOGY: The 100% polyester 24-carrier double-weave construction utilizes EverFlex technology to guarantee long-lasting flexibility and consistent handling in dirt, dust, and wet conditions. COLOR & LENGTH OPTIONS: Available in high-visibility Green and Orange to easily differentiate working ropes, with multiple lengths and one or two splice configurations to match your rigging needs. The Petzl CONTROL is a 12.5 mm low-stretch kernmantle rope engineered specifically for tree care professionals seeking high strength and excellent grip. The larger 12.5 mm diameter reduces hand fatigue during long ascents and provides exceptional stability when handling heavier loads. Built with a 100% polyester double-weave construction and EverFlex technology, the CONTROL maintains consistent flexibility and handling over time, regardless of water, dust, or mud. Available with one or two patented splices, the rope glides smoothly through friction savers and tree crotches. The exceptionally compact splice is explicitly designed to pass directly through the friction chain of the Petzl ZIGZAG and ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical Prusiks, eliminating the need to pull the entire tail end of the rope through your device.
