Sterling 8mm RIT 500 Heat Resistant Personal Escape Line
RIT Lines are rapidly becoming one of the best personal life-safety tools used in firefighting search and rescue situations. Sterling developed the RIT 900 and RIT 500 to give firefighters the ability and confidence to be "hands free" in difficult search operations. RIT Lines are fire-resistant "tag" lines that help firefighters maintain physical contact in extreme heat and rapidly deteriorating conditions. They significantly increase a team's speed, efficiency, and safety within a burning building. They also provide reference points so that additional outside crews are able to folow in quickly and safely. The RIT 500 measures 8mm in diameter and has an aramid kernmantle construction with a nylon core. Its heat resistance is 500 degrees Fahrenheit - lower than the RIT 900 due to its nylon core. This 8mm is a super strong, very durable, heat and cut - resistant "tag" line and also qualifies as a Personal Escape Rope. Certified to NFPA 1983, 2001 edition for Personal Escape Rope. Min Breaking Strength: 6180lbs Weight (lbs/100ft): 3.2 Elongation: 6.4% Heat Resistance: 500 degrees F
