Mammut Accessory Cord

Yes, the 7mm diameter is a standard and effective choice for prusik loops, offering a good balance between grip and durability. Its supple construction makes it easy to tie and manipulate, even when wearing gloves.

No, this is an accessory cord, not a dynamic climbing rope. It is designed for anchor construction, rescue operations, and backup systems, and it lacks the dynamic properties required to safely catch a lead fall.

UIAA certification indicates that the cord has been rigorously tested to meet international safety standards for mountaineering equipment. It confirms that the cord meets specific requirements for strength and performance in critical vertical environments.

Yes, a 13.50 kN breaking load is robust for accessory cord and is well-suited for building anchors, slinging chocks, or creating equalized rigging systems. Always ensure your anchor setup accounts for the specific forces involved in your climb.

Like all nylon-based climbing gear, you should store this cord in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Inspect it regularly for signs of abrasion, fraying, or chemical contamination, and retire it if you notice any significant damage.
