Yale XTC Hedera

HEDERA 117 is a true 11.7mm 24-strand double braid climbing line made from a unique blend of fibres. This blend of fibres maintains its round feel but remains flexible and knot friendly.

The 11.7mm diameter provides the perfect balance between the weight of an 11mm line and the feel of a larger line. Constructed from premium grade polyester outer sheaf and nylon inner core. The characteristics of HEDERA 117 delivers one of the most static, spliceable lines on the market to date. Ideal for use with traditional climbing techniques and single rope technique (SRT).

Climbers looking for a line that offers limited bounce and works well with common ascenders and descenders need look no further
