Edelrid Swift 48 2R Eco Dry 8.9 - Reduced Footprint Pro Rope

Looking for an ultra-lightweight single rope doesn't compromise in sustainability?

One rope, three standards! With a diameter of 8.9 mm, this is one of the thinnest single ropes on the market. Eco Dry is Edelrid's PFC and PFAS-free finish that offers permanently dirt and water-repellent properties. 

The SWIFT 48 2R ECO DRY is a rope with a reduced ecological footprint. 2R:  ‘reuse’ represents the reuse of high-quality leftover yarns from Edelrid's in-house production processes. 

Made on a braiding machine with 48 bobbins, the SWIFT 48 2R ECO DRY has a particularly fine sheath structure that offers very pleasant handling while also being extremely abrasion resistant.

No two ropes look the same. Colours change because we use leftover yarns — less waste, more personality!
