This video shows CMC's new reflective RIT line. The rope is 5.8mm in diameter, has a minimum breaking strength exceeding 2,200 pounds (10 KN) and is constructed with a Technora core and Nylon sheath:

Technora has a temperature rating over 900'F/480'C
Nylon is rated at 460'F/240'C

Incorporated into the sheath are bright orange and yellow fibers as well reflective tape which enhances the visibility of the rope in low light conditions. The suggested retail price for the entire search rope setup shown in the video is approximately $285.00 - Which means it can be purchased for less.

As the saying goes.......The shortest path between two points is a straight line; If a search rope is deployed and managed properly it can be another tool to enhance the safety, speed and efficiency of any search and rescue operation - Whether it's for a Civilian or missing Firefighter.
