Tendon Master 8.5 mm Complete Shield - green

Product detailed description

The Tendon Master 8.5 mm was built for climbers who demand strength, longevity, and confidence in every pitch. With its increased diameter and an extremely high UIAA fall rating, this rope stands out as the most durable half rope in the entire Tendon lineup.

It’s ideal for alpine and mountain climbing, mixed routes, and all scenarios where rope endurance and security are critical. The Master 8.5 provides smooth handling, easy control through belay devices, and a balanced feel, while maintaining excellent resistance to wear, dirt, and moisture thanks to its Complete Shield treatment.

Complete Shield is Tendon’s most advanced rope protection technology. Using state-of-the-art nanotechnology, both the core and sheath fibers are treated to create a long-lasting barrier against moisture, dirt, and mechanical damage. This process ensures maximum resistance to abrasion and significantly extends the rope’s lifespan, even in harsh alpine or icy environments. The rope remains flexible and easy to handle, without stiffness often found in heavily treated ropes.

Whether you’re tackling long alpine ridges, icy couloirs, or multi-pitch climbs, this rope delivers the perfect mix of safety, lifespan, and performance. It’s the rope you can trust — season after season.
