Additional Safety & Rescue Info / FAQ

Where can Samson Rescue & Safety lifeline ropes be used?

Samson ropes are built for high-angle rescue, rappelling, fall protection, and tactical applications. Built for both urban and outdoor environments, they perform in high-angle rescues, aerial extractions, confined spaces, and industrial fall protection systems. When scaling buildings, navigating rugged terrain, or securing work zones, our safety ropes deliver strength and reliable durability when it matters most.

How do safety and rescue operation conditions impact rope performance?

Unlike standard ropes, high-angle rescue ropes must withstand abrasion, extreme loads, and controlled descents. Samson’s HyperStatic and Static Rope are designed for low stretch and high tensile strength to support safety in vertical rescue operations.

How do Samson’s rescue ropes compare to traditional climbing ropes?

Traditional climbing ropes have more elasticity, while rescue and industrial ropes require minimal stretch for better control. Samson’s HyperStatic and Mercury™ CE safety and lifeline ropes are engineered for high-load environments, providing rigid stability and grip for rescue teams.
