Designed to deliver maximum strength, durability, and water resistance in the most compact packages, our VAPOR LINE Lineman Belt options both pack down incredibly small, \u003cspan\u003einclude 2 premium carabiners\u003c\/span\u003e, and are rigged for single-handed operation out of the package so you can minimize bulk without sacrificing safety.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVAPOR LINE ropes feature a core built from a proprietary blend of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene that is pound-for-pound stronger than steel and impervious to water absorption and floats. The exterior is constructed of a tightly woven, high-tenacity, 100% polyester sheath, providing both high UV and abrasion resistance and naturally hydrophobic characteristics.   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVAPOR LINE ropes are third-party tested for minimum breaking strength, elongation, diameter, and knot-ability according to Cordage Institute (CI) 1801-07 standards referenced by ASTM 2116 for low stretch and static kernmantle life safety rope. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the differences between 8mm and 10mm rope options?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 8mm size provides the smallest and lightest option available on the market.

After looking for alternatives, we decided the best option was to develop our own with greater durability and a naturally hydrophobic construction to repel water.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the differences between the VAPOR LINE Tether and Lineman Belt?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBoth have the exact same construction but are difference colors for organizational purposes.
