The SAMSON STABLE BRAID 12 mm is a proven rigging rope designed for lowering, guiding, and handling loads in arborist rigging operations. The double braid construction provides high strength, stability, and long service life even under intensive use.

The rope is made from 100% polyester (sheath and core), ensuring high resistance to abrasion, UV exposure, and moisture. The Samthane® coating reduces water absorption and increases durability in demanding environments.

Low elongation (approx. 1–3%) allows precise load control during lowering and lateral movement. The rope maintains a round profile, ensuring smooth operation through pulleys and friction devices.

Thanks to its robust construction and balanced core-to-sheath ratio, the rope is suitable for daily arborist use where reliability and consistent performance are essential.
