Operational Handling & Control
- Supple Braided Construction: Reduces hand fatigue and demands less gripping force during long descents.
- Liquid Absorption: Absorbs oil and operational spills without compromising descent speed or braking friction.
- Impact Protection: Delivers high elongation and shock-absorbing properties during sudden load transfers.
- Abrasion Resistance: Withstands rough airframe edges, tower surfaces, and tactical field wear.
Hardware & Termination Options
Select from three factory-engineered termination styles engineered for military and tactical air units:
-
Dynalite Termination (D.L.T / Dynaline):
- Replaces metal hardware to save significant weight.
- Eliminates injury risks to ground personnel when released post-deployment.
- Requires no X-ray inspection before re-use due to all-textile construction.
- Features an in-house factory splice trusted worldwide by specialized forces.
-
Multifit Termination (M.F.T):
- Fits a wide variety of helicopter cargo hooks and hoist assemblies.
- Incorporates a 45 mm machine eye for fast, secure attachment.
-
Spliced Eye (S.E / Soft Eye):
- Features a polyester-protected, factory-spliced eye.
- Hooks directly over support beams or scaffolding for training tower descents.
