Beal Back Up Line - 5mm Pink, 30m

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I keep a dedicated length of this in my kit for hauling or raising systems. The grip is excellent for such a thin cord, and the ultra-static behavior makes load control really predictable."Steep terrain and complex rescue setups demand predictable control, and the Back Up Line 5mm from Beal gives us the static performance required for clean hauling and precise lowering. Its compact diameter packs down efficiently, making it easy to build systems on exposed ledges or tight anchors where space matters. Even with gloves on, the roughened sheath offers secure handling when tension rises or when we're managing loads in cold conditions. Because the cord absorbs virtually no energy, every movement in the system responds directly to our input-a critical advantage when coordinating hoists or guided rappels. The aramid and polyamide blend keeps weight low while maintaining high tensile strength, helping us move efficiently between anchors, manage loads with accuracy, and keep our focus on the progression of the rescue rather than the limitations of the gear.
