Petzl Rad Line 6 mm / 60 m is an ultra-light, hyperstatic cord designed for ski tourers and freeriders who need serious glacier security over longer distances without carrying a full rope. At just 22 g per metre it remains impressively compact even in the 60-metre length, while the supple, grippy sheath makes it easier to manage when setting up crevasse rescue systems, controlling short rappels or holding a crevasse fall – a smart choice for committed ski mountaineering objectives where weight and safety must both be taken seriously.
The hyperstatic construction with less than 2 % stretch transfers force efficiently into your rescue setup and eliminates the yo-yo effect when rappelling or catching a fall. Its special HDPE-reinforced sheath is compatible with TIBLOC, MICRO TRAXION and NANO TRAXION, enabling powerful yet compact hauling systems. This makes the Petzl Rad Line 6 mm / 60 m a highly capable glacier tool that stays out of the way when you’re moving fast, but gives you real options when something goes wrong in complex glaciated terrain.
