Specifically engineered for high-stakes swiftwater and maritime operations, the Sterling GrabLine Water Rescue Rope offers exceptional handling and performance when every second matters. The defining characteristic of the GrabLine is its innovative, "tread-like" sheath pattern. This textured surface provides unmatched gripping power for both rescuers and victims, ensuring a secure hold even in fast-moving, wet conditions.

• High-Traction Tread Sheath: Features a specialized, textured "tread-like" sheath pattern that maximizes gripping power for cold, wet hands, minimizing slippage during critical rescues.
• Built-In Buoyancy: Naturally buoyant construction ensures the rope remains highly visible and accessible on the water's surface rather than sinking out of reach.
• Flexible Nylon Core: Built with a premium nylon core that provides strong structural reinforcement while keeping the rope incredibly pliable for easy packing, rapid throw bag storage, and smooth deployment.
• NFPA Certified: Fully compliant with NFPA 1983 standards for a designated Throwline, guaranteeing verified reliability for tactical safety protocols.
• Optimal 9.5 mm Profile: Provides a substantial feel for hand-over-hand pulling while remaining compact enough to minimize bulk and weight during transport.
• Robust Strength Metrics: * Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS): 14.6 kN / 3,282 lbs
• Safe Working Load (SWL 10:1): 328 lbs
• Low Elongation: Minimal stretch (4.2% elongation at 300 lbs) for efficient pulling power.
• Weight: Super lightweight at just 3.1 lbs per 100 feet.
