Unicore:
Unicore Is An Innovative Process, Bonding Rope Sheath And Core Without Affecting The Rope’S Suppleness. If The Sheath Is Cut Or Torn, The Core And Sheath Remain Bonded Together. With A Standard Rope, If The Sheath Is Cut By Abrasion Over An Edge, The Sheath Can Slide And Gather Along The Rope Length. This Can Create A Potentially Dangerous Situation.
