<H1>Rope History</H1>
|
|
<p>Rope should be labeled at both ends with "CUCC", the year of first use and the rope length. Where the manufacturer specifies the maximum end
|
|
of life date, this may also be specified, eg CUCC 2016-25. Rope without a specified manufacturers lifetime, shall be retired after 5 years and
|
|
one expo. The exception to this is where we have guidance from the manufacturer that the rope will last longer and drop testing results indicate
|
|
the rope is OK.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Rope should be chained only when it is washed and checked. Dirty or unchecked rope may be coiled. Rope should be washed, checked and
|
|
measured at the end of each expo. Ropes should be retired, when they have received a fall with a factor of greater than 0.5, when there any
|
|
defects detected (<a href="/expofiles/documents/notice_generale_cordes_courant_downloaded_22_07_16.pdf">examples bottom left corner</a>) or are
|
|
older than 5 years without a maximum end of life date. The maximum end of life date may be determined by cutting of a section of rope and
|
|
finding the plastic strip that should contain the manufacturer and date of manufacture. This may then allow the manufacturers guidance to be
|
|
determined.</p>
|
|
<p>Now read the <a href="rigit.html">Expo Rigging Guide</a> on rope care and retirement.
