Edelrid Apus Eco Dry 7,9mm icemint

Lightweight half rope with high safety reserves.
The APUS ECO DRY combines high safety reserves and excellent handling properties with low weight and a small diameter.
Its Eco Dry finish dispenses with PFCs and PFAS and makes the rope permanently dirt- and water-repellent.
The perfect rope for alpine adventures.

Low weight, small diameter and best handling
Permanently water- and dirt-repellent thanks to the PFC- and PFAS-free Eco Dry finish
Water absorption of < 2 % is significantly lower than required by the UIAA Water Repellent Test
Pleasant handling thanks to the Thermo Shield treatment
Ready to use straight away without kinks thanks to 3D Lapcoiling
Certified as a half and twin rope

Thermo Shield
Thermo Shield is the basic finish with which we treat all ropes to guarantee the proven suppleness of EDELRID ropes.
This finish is a thermal process through which core and sheath yarns are perfectly matched to each other.
Through a special heat treatment, the fibres in the rope relax and shrink out.
This harmonises the sliding properties of the yarns within the rope, and the rope becomes supple and compact.
This produces ropes that neither shrink further nor quickly become stiff.

3D Lap Coil
In combination with the well-thought-out packaging design, it is now child's play to start climbing straight away with the new rope.
That is because it can be pulled out very easily.
The marking on the rope and the detailed description on the packaging make pulling it out even easier, so that the rope can be used immediately without annoying twisting and tangling.

Eco Dry
Per- and polyfluorinated chemicals (PFC), and in particular the subcategory PFAS, make outdoor equipment resistant to oil, grease and water.
Once released into the environment, however, these chemicals break down only very slowly and thus pose a long-term environmental problem.
With the Eco Dry finishing technology, we have succeeded in developing a process that is almost on a par with high-performance PFC and PFAS.
Because of their three-dimensional kernmantle construction, the treatment process for ropes is very complex.
After all, the finishing process must never compromise the safety and functionality of a climbing rope.
The Eco Dry process meets all these requirements and is 100 % free of PFC or even PFAS.
The world's first PFC- and PFAS-free rope that at the same time meets the UIAA Water-Repellent Standard is the EDELRID Swift Eco Dry 8.9 mm.
It absorbs less than 1 to 2 % of its own weight in water.
It is also bluesign® certified and, with the Pro Dry line, offers comparable values in terms of durability, abrasion resistance and water and dirt resistance.
