Revolutionary Firefighting Product - Patent Pending
 

An outer braid of a specially blended aramid fiber gives this line durability, abrasion and cut resistance. An inner core of a proprietary treated HOTSTOP® rope allows the line to maintain strength and flexibility at  steady state temperatures of 1200°F with a melting point of 2080°F.

HT2’s outer braid is blended to offer excellent durability, abrasion and cut resistance. The outer braid performs like any other rope up to 650°F. Above 650°F the outer braid is sacrificial and will char, eventually losing any strength properties. Once temperatures exceed 650°F the rope core becomes the line, maintaining its strength and flexibility at working temperatures up to 1200°F. Compare HT2 side by side with any high temperature search / tag line - it will not burn or support combustion. When other lines have decomposed, burned or melted, HT2 is still on the job leading firefighters in or out.

See how well the HT2 rope withstood the flashover simulator!
