The UNICORE process brings an undeniable gain in security during delicate and dangerous operations ; its advantages are many:

BEAL, THE HOUSE OF INNOVATION

UNICORE pROCEssAn astonishing process, bonding rope sheath and core without affecting the rope’s suppleness. Even in the hardest conditions of use sheath slippage is suppressed. If the sheath is cut or torn, core and sheath remain bonded together. With a standard rope, if the sheath is cut by abrasion over an edge, a frequent occurrence in work at height and in rescues, it slides and gathers over some metres. It then becomes impossible to pass this zone, either to ascend or to descend. If the problem occurs near to the end of the rope the sheath may slide off completely, and the user fall to the ground. With the UNICORE process the sheath remains in place and the user may escape, either by descent or ascent, taking all necessary precautions. He/she is not stuck without a solution on the rope.

It prevents sheath slippage.It allows escape if the sheath has been cut. It allows temporary cutting of rope lengths with a knife, without melting the ends,

without fraying of the sheath.

It reduces shrinkage in water by more than 50 %.

BEAL, IT’S MORE LIFETIME:

THE dURABILITY OF BEAL ROpEsThe durability of a rope depends above all on the way it is used, but also on numerous technical factors: The quality of yarn used ; the compactness of the rope ; its suppleness ; the braiding of the filaments of the sheath ; their twist ; their number ; the number of braids… One other factor plays a particularly important role: the thickness of the sheath.You can check the quantity of sheath in BEAL ropes thanks to the percentage shown at the side of this pictogram.

BEAL SERVICESBEAL offer on most of its ropes a "cut –to-measure" service and a traceability service: "BEAL Traceability Service".

STORAGE TIMEIn good storage conditions BEAL PPE may be stored for up to 5 years before first use, without affecting their future lifetime in use.

LIFETIMEThe maximum lifetime of BEAL PPE is up to 15 years.Lifetime = Time in storage + time in use.

Lifetime in use: The potential lifetime of BEAL PPE in use is up to a maximum of 10 years.

Attention: This is the potential lifetime in use. An item of PPE may be destroyed during its very first use. It’s inspection and control which determine if the product must be scrapped earlier. Between uses, appropriate storage is essential. Lifetime (storage before use + time in use) is limited to 15 years.

ASSISTANCE, CONTROL AND RECORDING OF PPEOn the site Beal-pro.com, BEAL places at your disposition, for free, a service of apprenticeship in the control of PPE, but equally software capable of reading RFID chips as well as EAN 128 and Datamatrix codes.

Specially developed to meet the requirements of Australian standard AS4143.3, this very low stretch rope has a sheath in polyester and is constructed like the American ropes.

Key features: - Reduction in shrinkage (polyester).- Better heat resistance

(Melting point of polyester 260° C).- Better abrasion resistance

due to a thick sheath.

Great abrasion resistance for the most demanding applications.

Designed to meet the needs of firefighters in their different tasks, conforming to civil security code NIT no. 129-83-92 and to the Standard EN 1891.

rope as4143.3

Security rope which conforms to 2 standards, both the semi-static and the dynamic rope standards. It’s thus a classic semi static rope well adapted to various types of work on ropes, to rescue, and to tactical applications. In event of a very violent fall an internal Vectran ‘fuse’ will rupture, and the rope then becomes dynamic, with all the security that characterises dynamic ropes. The fuse will rupture under a force of around 3 kN. In addition, DYNASTAT resists a fall factor 1 drop holding 100 kg over a sharp metal edge of 0.75 mm radius.Ideal for delicate operations at height, pylon climbing, clock towers, rescue and fast technical intervention.

strong points:- Semi static and dynamic rope giving security in a wide range of circumstances. - Very low stretch of just 2 % in use.- Semi static rope that does not shrink, and thus doesn’t stiffen up.- A rope that’s supple, with very agreeable handling.

Short lengths of rope with sewn terminations for constructing self-locking (prusik) loops. These ropes have a 50 % aramid construction intermixed with polyester filaments. Prusiks made from classic ropes have a very short life, because they glaze in use due to the effect of friction. The presence of 50 % of highly thermally resistant aramid fibres in VOLCANO protect it against melting and thus greatly increases its lifetime.

Available in 10 and 12 mm, and 70 and 90 cm lengths, to suit different types of knots.

The 10 mm VOLCANO also comes in cut lengths:- In multiples of 10 cm.- Maximum length 200 cm.- Minimum 50 pieces per length.

Its braiding results from the technology of American tree workers, giving it great qualities of strength, pliability and easy handling.The UNICORE process which bonds the core and sheath prevents sheath slippage during use with self-loacking loops.

Made along the same lines as the BAOBAB, its thinner diameter makes a lighter rope, more supple and easier to handle than BAOBAB. It benefits from a new, glueless procedure for bonding the sheath onto the core, preventing all slippage, but still allowing splices to be made.

This multi-use rope, with an excellent handling/solidity balance, allows you to undertake all types of tree work in full security.

Its double braid polyester serves to make prusik loops. This 10 mm diameter rope, with high abrasion resistance, runs perfectly.

TOp TRUNK sLING (pulley attachment) Manufactured from hollow braid polyester with a polyurethane coating, this sling is specifically adapted to light removals up to 1100 daN(kg) WLL. Available in two lengths, 3 and 4 m.

AdJUsTABLE TRUNK sLING Manufactured from hollow braid polyester with a polyurethane coating, this adjustable sling is principally designed for the attachment of braking systems at ground level, at the base of the trunk. Its conception allows it to adapt exactly to different trunk diameters. Available in 3 lengths: 3, 5 and 7 m.

Coming from the technology of American tree dismantling ropes, GOLIATH is a static double braid rope of 100 % polyester pre-stretched with a polyurethene coating for better abrasion resistance. This rope has an excellent strength/diameter ratio.

The top tree dismantling rope. Made on the same basis as GOLIATH, its twisted core makes it more break resistant for lowering the heaviest loads.

Type B semi-static ropes specially developed for rapid descent from helicopters by special forces. Their Aramid sheath does not melt, even against a descender overheated by the descent. Whereas classic ropes in polyamide or polyester have a very limited lifetime because their sheath melts, rendering the rope stiff and useless, RAIDER ropes permit multiple descents.

As with the 11 mm RAIDER rope, designed for multiple descents, the RAIDER TACTIC 11 mm is slightly more limited. The thickness of the Aramid sheath has been reduced, and the amount of core increased, in order for RAIDER TACTIC 11 mm to be certifiable as a Type A rope.

ACC E s s O R I E s

Non-aggressive detergent developed for the easy cleaning of polyamide – whether ropes or harness. Does not damage polyamide if the water temperature is less than 30° C.

This brush has been specifically made for cleaning ropes. It adapts easily to different rope diameters. Twist the brush onto the rope then slide the rope holding the brush firmly under water. Insert it at any point along the rope.

BEAL has developed a special ink for marking the middle or ends of ropes. This ink only hardens the rope a little, resists water and is very abrasion resistant. The container has a small roller for better application of the ink.

With one container of Rope Marker you can obtain 30 markings of 5 cm.

Attention : Only for use on the ropes listed on the container.
