Product catalog summary
Overview of Marlow Ropes
Marlow Ropes offers a range of specialized ropes designed for various applications including rope access, work positioning, caving, abseiling, industrial access, military operations, and extreme environments. These ropes are made from high-quality materials such as polyamide and feature various certifications and specifications to meet industry standards.
Static LSK Ropes
These ropes are designed for high strength, energy absorption, and abrasion resistance, exceeding CE 1891 standards. They are available in diameters from 9mm to 12mm with breakloads ranging from 25.4kN to 42.8kN. The 9mm variant is certified as Type B, while others are Type A.
Reflective Static LSK
Similar to Static LSK but includes reflective markers for enhanced visibility in dark conditions, making them ideal for industrial access and confined spaces.
pH-I Static Ropes
These ropes change color when exposed to strong acids, indicating potential damage, suitable for environments with chemical exposure.
Black Marlow
Used in military and urban operations, these ropes offer high abrasion resistance and low stretch, available in 9mm and 11mm diameters with breakloads up to 30.8kN.
Diablo Ropes
Designed for extreme environments, these ropes have a heat-resistant cover that withstands temperatures over 300°C, with an 11mm diameter and a breakload of 35.5kN.
Aramid Abseil
Features a cover that resists melting and decomposes at 500°C, suitable for high-temperature environments, with an 11mm diameter and a breakload of 49.1kN.
ProTec 500
A heat-resistant rope with a Technora® cover, ideal for hot work applications, 11mm diameter, CE EN 1891 Type A certified.
Dynamic Climbing Ropes
These ropes offer high elongation and energy absorption, suitable for climbing and safety lines, with diameters of 10.5mm and 11mm, CE EN 892 certified.
Accessory Cord
Lightweight and strong, suitable for various applications, with diameters from 3mm to 8mm, CE EN 564 certified.
Chemical Resistance
A table is provided showing the residual strengths of synthetic fibers after chemical exposure, emphasizing the importance of selecting the right material for specific environments.
Technical Information
Details on rope strengths, weights, and working loads are provided, emphasizing the importance of proper usage and safety factors.
Specifications for Rope Eyes
The document outlines the necessary dimensions for rope eyes, specifying that the length of the eye when flat should be at least 2.7 times the diameter of the object it is used over, and the distance from the bearing point to the throat should be at least 2.4 times the diameter. For materials like Aramids and HMPEs, a larger eye with a throat angle of 15 degrees or less is required.
Inspection & Retirement
Regular inspection of ropes is crucial to ensure they remain undamaged and fit for service. Key inspection points include external and internal abrasion, glazing from excessive heat, discoloration indicating dirt or chemical damage, and inconsistencies such as lumps or thin areas. Ropes should be retired if they pose any risk of failure.
Storage
Ropes should be stored in a clean, dry place away from sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing on dirty floors or dragging over rough ground. For long-term storage, rinse with fresh water to remove dirt and salt. Braided ropes should be "hanked" in a figure of 8 to prevent twisting.
Sheaves, Pulleys, and Rollers
Using ropes around sheaves reduces their strength and lifespan. A sheave diameter of 8-10 times the rope diameter is generally sufficient, but materials like Aramids may require up to 20 times. The groove profile should support the entire rope, and 'V' groove sheaves should be avoided.
Contact Information
Marlow Ropes Ltd. is located in Hailsham, East Sussex, UK, and Marlow Ropes Inc. in Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA. Contact details are provided for both locations.
Additional Information
The document mentions other available brochures and provides a certification number for ISO 9001 compliance.

pH-1 Static has a unique colour change marker that will change from yellow to red when exposed to strong acids. Even a 20 seconds exposure to some acids can weaken a rope by 25%, compromising safety. Longer exposure will increase this strength loss. pH-1 Static (Permanent Halochromic Indicating) offers a clearly defined permanent colour change, indicating when a rope has been compromised by strong acid chemicals and should be retired. pH-1 Static is a EN 1891 certified static rope with all the usual benefits of Marlow Static LSK. Applications Industrial access, cleaning with chemicals, paint...

This table shows the residual strengths of synthetic fibres after chemical exposure under specific conditions. rope strengths and weights Rope strengths are tested according to Marlow's QA25 and 26 quality procedures. Generally these procedures are in line with BS EN ISO 2307, however, a number of other internationally recognised test standards are used including EN 1891 and EN 564. Rope mass is determined be weighing a sample of rope whose length has been measured at a reference load. For most ropes this load is calculated as: REFERENCE LOAD (kg) = D2/8 Where D is the rope nominal diameter (mm)...
