can you help identify this rope

NE Tree · Apr 5, 2015

I got a couple of bags'o'rope from treestuff. In my second bag I got a 100 foot hank of db rigging rope and a little over 100' hank of this 16 strand. I can't seem to find out the manufacturer of this. I looked on treestuff.com to see if I could find it on there but no luck. Any help or info would be appreciated.

Sorry, the one on the right is the core.

I thought about samson Tru blue but I think that's 12 strand. This one is 16 strand.

Any pics of the core? Or is the core in the picture already?? Did I miss it?

I'm not familiar with true blue but according to treestuff its a 12 strand single braid. It does look just like it but in a 16 strand version.

That one looks like it has three carrier strands in the cover...

What's the material? Does it melt and turn brown or sorta keeps burning and melts, or just chars no melting or burns and makes ashes?

TreeLogic · Apr 5, 2015

yeah, the all gear has a green tracer too. not it.

this kernmantle looks pretty close. never heard of it though. made by IKAR...

You guys are all awesome! Treelogic I think you may have figured it out. Raj I'll do a little testing on it when I get home. Jeffgu I may just have to send them a picture if nothing else. I appreciate all of the interest and info.

The cover melts and goes out when I take the flame away and doesn't char. The core melts and continues to burn when i take the flame away.
edit- I didn't notice any ashes at all
