Fixe Fosca HMPE Sling 8mm x 180cm

Introduction

The Fixe Forsca 8mm x 180cm Stitched Sling features carefully finished seams, along both edges and the side, designed to prevent snagging during maneuvers with tethers, carabiners, and other gear. The distinctive Fixe logo is sewn onto the side to reduce friction during use, and the labels edges are rounded for added smoothness.

The Fosca sling combines materials that significantly enhance its durability and resistance. Its central section, in black, is crafted from HMPE (high-modulus polyethylene), a lightweight material with exceptional tensile strength. The slings sides are reinforced with a polyamide outline, marked by its length indicator colour, renowned for its high abrasion resistance. This precise material selection optimizes the Fosca slings performance, making it not only incredibly lightweight but also highly resistant to both traction and wear. Polyamide is also used in the slings safety seams for additional durability.

With a resistance of 22 kN, the Fosca sling can endure high-impact loads and boasts exceptional abrasion resistance, surpassing that of standard polyamide slings, ensuring reliability in every movement. Its versatile and flexible design makes it an essential piece for quickdraw setups or building belays. Notably, it is the shortest sling in the product line, also available in 60 and 120cm lengths.

Ideal for mountain activities, expeditions, mountaineering, ice climbing, and traditional climbing.
