With its low elongation and very robust sheath the Superstatic is ideal for meeting the demanding conditions of caving, rescue, industrial and expedition use. Manufactured with a sheath that is tightly woven
to prevent the ingress of dirt into the core, the construction of the sheath also makes it resistant to abrasion and the wear from ascenders.

Thermo Shield
The Thermo Shield treatment has been in use at EDELRID for more than 20 years. Thermo Shield is a thermal stabilizing process for the rope that gives it the famous EDELRID handling characteristics and feel. The rope undergoes a heat treatment cure to stabilize and harmonize the individual yarns. This treatment cannot be washed out and ensures a supple rope throughout its working life.
