Product Description
A lightweight, smaller diameter single rope with optimal handling. The Viper is particularly suitable for sports routes. The thicker sheath (45%) makes it extraordinarily robust, despite its smaller diameter. Our new DuoTec process provides permanent marking in the middle of the rope and a distinct design.

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.

DuoTec

A new, patented EDELRID process to manufacture bi-color ropes. The braiding spools are changed halfway through the braiding process to create two distinctly different sheath patterns. Each rope length has a different color. The DuoTec process ensures permanent marking in the middle of the rope and a distinctive design. The differently-patterned rope halves are easily identifiable - very useful when abseiling, determining how much rope you have left, or butterfly coiling.

Bluesign certified environmentally clean

Edelrid is the first rope company world wide to successfully certify under the stringent Bluesign standard.
