Tactical Escape Rope Systems

The weight and bulk of a traditional rope system often determines whether it is carried on a mission or not. Basic equipment needed for egress and escape packages is often left behind because of the volume they take up in a pack - space which is often seen as taking valuable room for other mission critical components. Micro rope systems remove most of the bulk and weight of traditional rope systems without compromising the capability requirements of the end user.
