Mammut Alpine Dry Rope

No, this is an 8.0mm double rope designed specifically for ice climbing, mountaineering, and multi-pitch routes. It is not intended for use as a single rope in sport climbing scenarios.

This rope is certified as both a half and a twin rope, giving you flexibility in how you manage your protection. You can use it as a half rope to reduce drag on wandering routes or as a twin rope for added security on straight, alpine pitches.

The rope meets UIAA standards for water repellency, absorbing less than 1.5% of its weight in water. This makes it highly effective at resisting freezing and becoming heavy during long days in snowy or icy environments.

No, the rope comes ready to climb straight out of the package. Mammut processes it to be tangle-free, so you can head straight to the crag without spending time uncoiling it.

Despite its small 8.0mm diameter, the rope features a 41% sheath proportion and specialized Dry finishing. This combination provides excellent abrasion resistance, though like all thin alpine ropes, it requires careful handling over sharp rock edges.

Yes, the rope includes an abrasion-resistant center mark. Because it is integrated into the construction rather than just dyed on, it remains visible even after significant use.
