KM III is an exceptional static rope for rappelling, caving, rescue, top roping, fixed rope applications, hauling, and life safety applications – a true jack-of-all-trades.  

The polyester cover of KM III is balanced with a polyamide core to limit rotation, bouncing, and stretch. Our KM III is NFPA and CE certified.  Thirty-two bobbins produce the right cover for the unique demands required of this static rope and the optimum cover/core ratio. This creates an incredibly smooth cover, higher tensile strengths, and superior handling characteristics.

Our static KM III excels with:

  • 32-strand cover for optimum cover/core ratio
  • polyester over polyamide with a balanced, torque free construction
  • excellent handling and knot holding characteristics
  • high abrasion resistance
  • excellent UV protection
