Premium grade climbing line designed to offer tree care profes-

sionals quick and easy access to the tops of trees. Arborists who

prefer that “broken in” feeling will appreciate Samson’s propri-

etary “Sure Grip” technology which gives Velocity that broken-in

feeling the first time used. The lightweight and firm construction

offers the arborist exceptional footlocking capabilities, quick

access, excellent knot holding ability and a spliced strength of

Velocity Cool ➤ CLIMBING ROPE

World-class champion climbers and professionals at

ArborMaster® Training worked closely with Samson engineers to

develop the ultimate climbing line. ArborMaster ropes are

premium quality 16-strand ropes offering a smooth durable

surface to optimize footlocking. They are non-milking, making

them spliceable at both ends right out of the bag. This allows

you to alternate the working end of the rope from the first use

maximizing the service life of the rope.

True-Blue is an all polyester climbing rope with high strength, low

stretch, excellent abrasion resistance and a long service life. It’s

got a great feel with good flexibility and knot holding abilities.

The single braid construction eliminates the need for milking

and stays firm and round in use. True-Blue can also be used for

light duty rigging applications. True-Blue braided climbing line is

a unique combination of solution dyed blue polyester fiber

wrapped over white polyester in a Samson 12-Strand braid.

The result is permanent color that won’t fade or run, with high

visibility in trees, that allows easy detection of cover wear.

True-Blue ➤ CLIMBING ROPE

The unique construction of Arbor-Plex wraps tough polyester

jacket fibers around polyolefin center fibers creating a light-

weight, high-strength rope with maximum resistance to wear and

fiber fusing. Arbor-Plex uses a proprietary construction to tighten

the braid and keep the rope round and firm for knot control and

snag resistance. Arbor-Plex was the first synthetic rope designed

specifically for the arborist industry and remains one of the best

values in climbing lines today.

Braided Safety Blue is designed to stay round and firm while

providing an important indicator for retiring if the cover

becomes abraded or cut. The construction significantly reduces

weight without compromising firmness and roundness while

maintaining excellent durability and grip. Cover yarns are treated

with a special formula enhancing abrasion resistance and

extending the service life of

the rope. Available in stan-

dard white, Hi-Vee orange

ROPE STRENGTH Standards for Rope Strength and UsageNew Rope Tensile Strengths: New Rope tensile strengths are based on tests of new and unused rope of standard construction in accordancewith manufacturer’s Standard Test Methods. It can be expected that strengths will decrease as soon as a rope is put into use. Because ofthe wide range of rope use, changes in rope conditions, exposure to many factors affecting rope behavior, and the possibility of risk to lifeand property, it is impossible to cover all aspects of rope applications or to make blanket recommendations as to working loads.

Working Loads: Working loads are the loads that a rope is subject to in everyday activity. They are normally expressed as a percentage ofnew rope strength and should not exceed 10% unless specified by the manufacturer. A point to remember is that a rope may be severelyoverloaded or shock loaded without breaking. However, damage and strength loss may have occurred without any visible indication. Thenext time the rope is used under normal working loads, the acquired weakness may cause it to break.

Throwline BIGshotThe BIGshot has been redesigned and is more accurate and 25% lighter than before! Thanks to computer-

aided design (CAD), Jameson was able to reduce excess bulk and weight from the head assembly while

keeping the same wide-fork dimension that has made this such a popular throwline accessory. While they

were at it, Jameson redesigned the launch pad to reduce in-air projectile rotation by 50%, greatly improving

accuracy (also available as a sling replacement for older models). Jameson improved the leading and most

effective means of accurately launching a throw weight into tree canopies and over targets up to 200 feet.

Dynaglide by New England Ropes

This highly visible snag free throwline is made from 100% HMPE

(High Modulus Polyethylene) that is pre-stretched and tensile-set

then treated with an abrasion resistant vinyl coating that easily

glides over bark. The compact design glides easily over branches

allowing lighter throw weights.

FreeThrow Line

FreeThrow is the ulti-

mate in throwline and

utility line. FreeThrow is

a 1/8" diameter. 100%

polyethylene monofila-

ment diamond braid

line.

The first throwline line designed specifically for the professional

arborist. Samson’s Zing-It offers high strength, low stretch, and

excellent abrasion resistance to enhance durability - all in a

small diameter, lightweight throwing line.

Zing-It helps you achieve higher throws with lighter weights,

greater control due to its low stretch, and the ability to pull down

“hangers” due to its high strength. The special coating reduces

abrasion and allows Zing-It to glide easily over the roughest

bark. Zing-It’s low coefficient of friction allows the bag to easily

reach the ground on the first throw. Use for either hand or

mechanical throwing.

Weaver’s new Cordura® Throw Weights are their strongest yet. Cordura® is a high-

performance fabric resistant to abrasions, tears, and scuffs and is twice as durable

as standard nylon. In addition to the Cordura® exterior, Weaver has coated the #8

shot to protect it from moisture and wrapped it in a balloon to keep the shot encap-

sulated and compacted for better trajectories. The new D-ring at the top of the bag

is nickel-plated die-cast zinc to prevent rusting. Available in traditional single color

and new two-color bags with bottom loop and redesigned aerodynamic design.

(Cordura® is a registered trademark for durable fabrics.)

Cordura® 2-Color Design

These premium Cordura® throw weights

from Weaver have a new aerodynamic

design to go along with the highly visible

2-color cover. There is a loop on the bot-

tom of the weight to attach an accessory

carabiner. The nickel-plated D-ring

prevents rusting.
