New England KM III Static Kernmantle rope features a composite construction of nylon and polyester fibers, providing an excellent line for rescue operations. KM III provides high tensile strength and low stretch, with good heat, chemical and abrasion resistance. The rope is torque-balanced for no spin when rappelling. It is a balanced construction, with the cover and core each representing 50% of the total weight. The cover is made of continuous filament polyester, braided over a continuous filament nylon core. This provides excellent handling and knot-holding characteristics, as well as rugged protection from abrasion and cutting.
