APUS

The Edelrid Apus complies with both twin and double rope standards, making it the ideal rope for alpine, mixed and extreme mountaineering where every gram counts. Despite a very low weight of just over 2 kg for a 50 m length, the Apus can hold an amazing 20 double rope test falls and 8-9 in the twin rope test. This makes the Apus one of the lightest twin ropes on the market with high a degree of safety. The EDELRID Pro Shield treatment keeps the rope dry and dirt-free while the Thermo Shield treatment helps keep the rope supple even after heavy and prolonged use.
