For over 40 years, we here at The Weinel Group have based our manufacturing in Western PA. Pittsburgh once being the steel capital of the world, we take great pride in retaining the spirit of producing quality American-made goods, when so many others seem to be shifting parts of their operations overseas. We’ve had the pleasure to meet so many Pittsburgh-based climbers, emergency service personnel, industry workers and first responders who share our same values of rolling up your sleeves and getting it done. So, our Steel City rope was created as a tribute to our city’s attitude of resilience, perseverance, hard work, and commitment to keeping U.S. jobs alive.

Steel City is an 11.7mm CE EN1891 rope whilst being compliant with ANSI Z133. This light weight arborist climbing rope, currently boasts the lowest elongation on the market (1.2%). Designed specifically for the new generation of mechanical climbing devices and modern climbing techniques.  The super-low elongation make this rope easier and faster to climb with, significantly reducing bounce and climbing fatigue.
Steel City has a tough polyester core that provides extremely low elongation whilst also being energy absorbing, ideal for SRT climbing.  The 24 plait polyester jacket gives a rope with exceptional flexibility and handling without compromising on durability.
