BEAL ROPES AND HARNESSES NOW HAVE A DNA CODE

BEAL has not waited for regulation to give its ropes and harnesses a system of guaranteed traceability for life, and an infallible information key to its products. The first generation of ropes and harnesses integrating this service has been born. In effect, each product posesses a unique individual number from its manufacture which allows identification at any time. It’s partly its DNA code, we have thus baptised this identification system for Identification Number.

Its special construction allows precise and comfortable control during descent. Fast Rope exists with two types of termination: • Spliced eye : A large splice, making it easy to fi x the rope from scaffolding or a beam to simulate descent from helicopters. • M.F.T Multi Fit Termination : A swaged metal ferrule to allow rapid fi xing and removal from the hooks found in most large helicopters.
