Features
Unicore
The Beal Opera 8.5mm Golden Dry Rope features Beal’s unique Unicore Technology, which bonds the sheath and the core of the rope together, drastically reducing sheath slippage and making your rope much safer to use. The Unicore Treatment means that you can still safely rappel or abseil to safety if the sheath of your rope gets cut, as it won’t slip or bunch up, which causes it to become impossible to pass through your descender.
Golden dry
Beal’s Golden Dry Treatment means that both the sheath and the core of the rope have been treated to resist dirt, ice and water. This makes the Beal Cobra ll 8.6mm ideal for ice climbing and mountaineering routes because it won’t freeze up or absorb a lot of water. Golden Dry Treatment also increases the longevity of your rope and improves the handling. Win, win.
Date Of Manufacture
All ropes on the market have their date of manufacture printed on them. If you would like to know the date of manufacture of the rope before you buy please contact a staff member via the chat window.
Lightweight and Versatile

1 Rope 1 Tree
Beal takes their environmental responsibility seriously. They divide their efforts between two main approaches. Firstly, Beal run an exceptional programme, in which they plant a tree for every single dynamic rope purchased. They’ve been doing this since 2007 and have no plans to stop! Secondly, Beal organises the recycling of ropes when they reach the end of their life. Every Beal rope is recyclable, and anyone can send their used Beal rope to one of their recycling departments, where they are broken down and reused. Top work Beal!
