DYNAMIC TECHNOLOGY DYNASTAT 10,5mm The DYNASTAT conforms to two standards, both the semi-static (CE EN 1891 type A) and the dynamic rope standard (CE EN 892). First and foremost, it is a classic semi-static rope, with little stretch. Ideal for work positioning, DYNASTAT is well adapted to various types of work on ropes, rescue and tactical applications. In the event of an abrupt and violent fall, an internal Vectran fuse will rupture; the rope then becomes dynamic, with all the inherent security of dynamic rope. The fuse will rupture under a force of around 3 kn. This rope is ideal for delicate operations at height, pylon climbing, clock towers, rescue and rapid technical intervention. This rope is supple and easy to handle, it does not shrink and therefore does not become stiff with use. With only 2% stretch, it is ideal for work on rope; with resistance equal to 10 falls at 1.77 fall factor, it is a truly excellent dynamic rope. All videos and tests of the DYNASTAT 10.5mm are on www.beal-pro.com. DYNA PRO 8 DYNA PRO 8 is an adjustable, dynamic rope lanyard with sewn terminations. Its dynamic performance is vastly superior to that of traditional static lanyards. By making his own double fi g-8 knot point of attachment to his harness the operator can obtain an asymmetric V lanyard adjusted to his specifi c needs. In this confi guration, made in accordance with instructions, the lanyard meets Standard EN354. The security of the operator is improved in the event of a fall on the lanyard because the dynamic rope hugely reduces the impact force. By making his own double fi g-8 knot, the operator is able to clip long or short. Passing intermediate anchors is easier because of the two strands. Strength: Up to 2500Kg (2200Kg per strand with a fig-8 knot) All videos and tests of the DYNA PRO 8 are on www.beal-pro.com. DYNA PRO V DYNA PRO V is an asymmetric dynamic rope lanyard with sewn terminations. The dynamic performance of this lanyard is therefore greatly superior to that of traditional static lanyards. The security of the operator is improved in the event of a fall on the lanyard because the dynamic rope hugely reduces the impact force. The DYNA PRO V, in conformity with the instructions, meets Standard EN354. Using a maillon rapide, DYNA PRO V can be attached to the chest ring of any harness, and offers the possibility to clip short or long. Sewn terminations fi tted with a sleeve to protect the rope and a pinch to hold the karabiner in position. Strength: Up to 2200Kg, incl. between the end and the knot.

PRO BAG CONCEPT GENIUS SIMPLE ET TRIPLE When working at height it is not always easy to keep small tools and fastenings to hand, and there s always the risk of dropping or losing them. Today BEAL proposes a revolutionary new storage pocket. With its patented clic clac automatic closing system, the Genius is perfect for keeping all essential items to hand, safely and in an organized manner. First introduced 10 years ago, this patented system has already proved its worth in climbing and mountaineering. It is now available for professionals. Easy to attach to a harness, with a magnetic patch so that small fastenings can be put aside temporarily, and its ergonomic opening and automatic closing feature, the Genius pocket will soon become indispensable for work at height. It exists in single pocket version or assembled by 3. Simple, weight : 125 g - Triple, weight : 445 g GENIUS BUCKET This 20 litre bucket has been designed to carry small tools, drill, screw gun or grinder and fastenings as well, thanks to a 3 pocket Genius clic clac system fitted on the inside. Its wide, rigid opening offers optimal ergonomics for removing and replacing tools. The patented clic clac system secures the small items. With its rigid handle, it s an ideal product for carrying the necessary tools for the job. Capacity : 20 L - Weight : 1085 g PROTECTOR CONCEPT MAGNETIC HOT TUBE The Magnetic Hot Tube is the first patented rope protector resistant to high temperatures. Made with fibreglass and aluminium, it protects your rope from the flame of a blowtorch or sparks produced by soldering or grinding. It is an essential security element for anyone who works with open flames or sources of heat during operations on ropes. Placing and/or moving the sheath on the rope is facilitated by a magnetic closing system, with magnetic buttons. Weight : 140 g - Lenght : 70 cm SHARP EDGE ROPE ARMOUR SHARP EDGE Provide your rope with armour. This Rope Armour is a patented metallic plaited sheath used to protect the rope from sharp or abrasive edges or tools. This flexible armour is more durable and efficient than conventional rope protectors. Once it has been pulled onto the rope, the Rope Armour can be moved along the rope to the point of abrasion where the rope is at risk : roof edge, grinder or sander, excessive friction zone, etc. Weight : 280 g - Lenght : 70 cm ons Demonstrati
BEAL TECHNOLOGIES UNI CORE PROCESS This patented technology permanently bonds the sheath to the core by a revolutionary new polymerization process. It is an astonishing process, bonding rope sheath and core without affecting the rope s fl exibility. Even in the most severe conditions of use the sheath will not slip. If the sheath is severed or torn, core and sheath remain bonded together. With a standard rope, if the sheath is damaged by abrasion over an edge, a frequent occurrence in work at height and in rescues, it slides and gathers over some metres. Thanks to the Uni Core Process the sheath remains in place and the user can escape, either by descent or ascent. The Uni Core Process spectacularly improves performance and security, even in the most extreme conditions. This manufacturing process is available on the ropes Access 10.5mm and Baobab 13.5mm. Available in 20m, 30m, 40m, 50m, 100m, 200m lengths and made-to-measure. All videos and tests of the Uni Core Process are on www.beal-pro.com/access. HEAT RESISTANT TECHNOLOGY Made with an Aramid sheath, capable of withstanding a long period close to a major source of heat, the Raider 11mm is the ideal partner during an intervention in a high temperature environment. This advanced technology ensures that the Raider 11mm is resistant to heat of up to 400 C, for a period of at least 15min. After such exposure to heat, the rope has residual strength of about 1490Kg; the user can escape, either by descent or ascent, even using the part of the rope which has been subjected to the heat. Available in 200m and made-to-measure. All videos and tests of the Uni Core Process are on www.beal-pro.com/raider. CHEMICAL RESISTANT TECHNOLOGY CHEMICAL The abrasive effect of chemicals on polyamide is often underestimated. A chemical product can cut through a classic rope of 100% polyamide in less than 4 minutes. That s why BEAL invented a semi-static rope with an inner Aramid sheath, covered by a classic sheath. This rope allows access in the presence of certain dangerous chemicals. The Hotline 11mm is a type A semi-static rope manufactured using this technology. Find out all about the residual tenacity of Aramid string after exposure to different chemical products and watch a video about this rope on the website www.beal-pro.com. Available in 200m and made-to-measure. All videos and tests on the Hotline 11mm are on www.beal-pro.com.
