XTC-48: Scandere — Purple, Red, & Yellow
Scandere, meaning “to-climb”, is a high-performance climbing line with a lightweight design featuring an exclusive, ultra-smooth 48-carrier cover. Ideally suited for mechanical climbing systems used in competitive tree climbing.
- New and improved design for improved durability
- CE EN 1891 Type A certification with a tougher jacket and firmer construction make this product more versatile than traditional Kernmaster.
The braid also bends more easily and with less fatiguing of the core when cycled over sheaves or dropped over a parapet. The color is added prior to yarn production, which makes for lasting colors and enhanced wear resistance.

Dielectric Strength
The maximum allowable leakage for clean, dry Kernmaster is 500 micro- amperes when tested at 100kV per Yale Method 712-1701 Rev 1 “Routine Production Test.” Absorbed and entrained moisture or impurities will increase rope’s conductivity dramatically.
