MODIFICATIONS and REPAIRS:
SERVICE LIFE
The maximum lifespan of a rope from the date of manufacture is ten (10) years. With regular use and appropriate care, the normal lifespan of this product is approximately between two (2) and five (5) years.
If the rope is used frequently, and/or in conditions in which the rope is exposed to grit, mud, sand, or other particulates, the rope’s lifespan may be much shorter.
If the rope is damaged, impacted, or exposed to conditions and/or chemicals as described above in the Storage section, retire the rope immediately.
A single instance of a fall, impact, damage, or exposure could require the rope to be retired after a single use.
Some examples of occurrences that require immediate inspection of the rope are: climber fall; being struck by falling rock, ice or other debris; abrasion; use in or exposure to grit, mud, sand, or other particulates; exposure to rust, corrosion, or saltwater/air; and conditions and/or chemicals as described above in the Storage section. If there is any doubt about the integrity or safety of your rope after inspection, RETIRE IT!
