Nystron 16mm (5/8") Rigging Rope

Samson's Nystron offers impressive working loads and break strengths with added energy absorption.

Nystron double-braid provides the advantages of high strength retention, and great energy absorption / shock mitigation. Nystron resists abrasion and works especially well in wet environments.

Nystron combines the durability and abrasion resistance of a polyester jacket with a more energy-absorbing nylon core. This is especially useful when using Nystron in negative blocking, such as large removals.
