For the WorkPro, Sterling have developed an entirely new approach to rope construction—one that makes for balanced elongation in the core and sheath so they share the load evenly. This makes the WorkPro Series stronger than other ropes of similar construction while retaining a small but important amount of elongation.
Sterling’s newest static rope is the direct result of a rigorous in-use testing and evaluation process with rope access professionals working in variable and harsh conditions. The final design incorporates their feedback and benefits from Sterling’s extensive experience working with nylon/ polyester mixed material ropes.
- Polyester Sheath gives great durability including abrasion and UV
- Nylon Core gives suppleness for good handling and tying knots etc.
- All diameters are EN 1891 Type A & ANSI Z133 Certified
- 10mm & 11mm are NFPA 1983: Technical while 12.5mm is NFPA 1983: General Use
11mm is now available from stock and the 10mm & 12.5mm diameters are available to order.
WorkPro has a great range of applications in Industrial, Rescue and Arbor settings. For a quick overview in this video Matt Hunt, Sterling Work Market Manager tells us about the features and benefits of the WorkPro static rope series that are ideal for rope access technicians.
