Climb Right Wire Core Lanyard – 1/2 in x 10 ft, Swivel Snap and Eye

A 10 ft flipline for spur climbing and removals, built on a steel wire core inside a 1/2 in rope cover. The 1/2 in diameter is lighter and a little more flexible than the 5/8 in version, which some climbers prefer for smaller stems and lighter saddles, and the wire core keeps the lanyard stiff enough to flip around the trunk and resistant to accidental saw contact. One end carries an ANSI-approved double-locking steel swivel snap; the other is a crimped eye for your rope grab or adjuster.

Spyder crimps each termination twice with a hydraulic press: the first crimp secures the wire core around the eye and the second locks the rope cover to the core, which eliminates flex fatigue between the crimps and stops the cover from milking away from the end fittings. Every lanyard is individually load tested to 650 lb before it ships. Wire core lanyards resist accidental saw contact but are not cut-proof: always stay tied in with a second system while cutting, and never use a wire core lanyard near electrical conductors.

Climb Right is the arborist line of Spyder Manufacturing of Placentia, California, which has been sewing and assembling climbing gear for working tree crews for decades. Made in the USA.
