ICON XHD
2026 product lineup 12-strand HMPE rope with individual strand coverage
The ICON XHD redefines what a high-performance rope can be. At its core, low-twist HMPE yarns deliver extraordinary strength, while each of its 12 strands is individually encased in a tightly woven 16/24/32-strand braided cover (HMPE/PES optional) - providing strand-level protection against wear and abrasion in the most rugged environments imaginable. This meticulous construction produces a consistently round, perfectly balanced rope that performs as good as it looks.
Featuring a protective outer cover and an integrated inner sand filter, the rope delivers enhanced UV resistance and superior abrasion protection from both internal and external forces.
