For over fifteen years now, Sterling Rope has been designing and manufacturing the highest quality, most technically advanced rope and cord for climbing. Our ropes for climbing and outdoor are designed for their specific purpose and as such we offer a broad range of great ropes from which to choose. Sterling ropes are made to perform extraordinarily well in all conditions due to our unique DryCore™ and Better Braid Technology™. These processes give you incredibly durable ropes that are smaller in diameter, lighter, and better handling, as well as dry cores, designed to keep moisture out and performance up.

Nano

 

 

The Nano 9.2mm, with its super skinny construction lives up to the Sterling Rope trademarks. So, no matter what happens to your skin, one constant you can count on is that the Nano will deliver high end performance and longterm durability on extreme onsights, redpoints, and alpine routes.

NOTE: Due to these ropes' small diameters, it is recommended they only be used for onsights, redpoints, and NOT for top-roping or working of routes. It is critical that proper belay devices be used and extreme caution should be taken.

 

Dynamic Elongation - 32.5%
Impact Force - 8.4kN

The Ion has been made better!


Now known as the Ion2, it still has a unique construction and different than any rope on the market.

 

Thin, But not scary thin, the Ion2 9.4 is a high performance, lightweight rope. The new and improved construction includes a thicker sheath, lighter weight, and lower impact force. This rope is great for cragging, working projects, and is light enough to send hard redpoints.

This new design gives the rope a UIAA fall rating of 5 and its impact force goes from 8.6kN to 8.1kN.

“The ION2... Is great!!! It could be the best rope Sterling has made so far. I have been climbing non-stop with it since you gave me and I let everyone use and it is still in great shape. It might be slightly less dynamic than the Nano, but it works great... Cheers.” -- Nicolas Favresse

    Sterling Athletes

    Sterling's athlete program was started over sixteen years ago to test our products and get R&D feedback. Back then it was called the "Product Development, Product Test" team. Over the years more visible, well known climbers started to choose Sterling and the "PDPT" became our Ambassador Team.  We called them ambassadors because we wanted our athletes to not only be positive representatives for Sterling, but the sport of climbing as well.

    Today our Athlete Team is made up of some of the best and most interesting climbers from around the globe! Read all about them HERE
