(These runners are not for rigging uses)
WesSpur stocks two styles of light-duty loop slings for use by tree climbers. 1" nylon Runners are versatile and inexpensive tools that can provide quick connections in a variety of situations. We stock nylon loop slings in a range of sizes, and also offer 1" tubular nylon webbing in bulk quantities. In addition to the nylon loops, WesSpur stocks loops made from Spectra, a special high-strength fiber that gives higher breaking strengths in smaller diameters.
With a 4,950 lb. break strength, these spectra runners are lightweight and strong, and have dozens of uses for all climbers. Used for light duty applications where dynamic loads are not possible, making custom ascender slings, quick draws, and redirects.
Min Breaking Strength(lb.): 4,000
This tubular nylon webbing is sold by the foot so that you can purchase as much as you like for any custom rope or sling projects you have in mind. Often used to create ascender slings, tool straps, or even protective sheathes for climbing lines. The breaking strength of the end project created by the buyer may be different than the minimum breaking strength listed above, based upon what techniques are used.
