Yale Blue Moon 11.7 mm Climbing Rope

The Yale Blue Moon 11.7mm Climbing Rope is a competition-grade arborist climbing line that combines the lightweight feel of an 11mm rope with the comfortable grip of a traditional 1/2-inch line. Designed for use in Moving Rope Systems (MRS) and Stationary Rope Systems (SRS), it performs smoothly with compatible mechanical devices and hitch-tending climbing systems.

Its 24-strand Tite-Braid polyester cover provides a smooth surface for efficient mechanical ascension while helping minimize cover milking. The braided-filament polyester core maintains a firm, flexible feel and resists work hardening during extended use. With low elongation for reduced bounce and dependable knotability, Blue Moon delivers responsive handling and long-lasting performance for professional tree climbing.
