Iris 9 ICE
Semi-Static Canyoning Rope
The IRIS 9 ICE is a Type B semi-static canyoning rope developed by KORDA’S for winter canyoning. Thanks to its ICE System water-repellent treatment, it absorbs less than 2.5% water, preventing the rope from freezing while improving abrasion resistance, making it ideal for canyons with particularly abrasive rock.
It also complies with the UIAA 101:2019 Water Repellent standard, ensuring reliable performance in cold and wet conditions.
The IRIS 9 ICE incorporates the exclusive SUMMUM System, which guarantees a complete bond between the sheath and the core, together with the TITAN System, which prevents sheath slippage relative to the core after severe abrasion. These technologies provide greater safety, durability and reliability during technical maneuvers.
Like all KORDA’S technical ropes, the IRIS 9 ICE is manufactured under strict quality controls to ensure consistent performance throughout its lifetime. Due to its characteristics, please note that the rope floats.
FINISHES
ICE System
Water repellency treatment according to sections 2.1.2 and 3.2 of the UIAA 101: 2019 Water Repellency standards, which requires a water absorption rate under 5%. Korda’s ICE treatment guarantees less than 2,5% water absorption. Additionally, it provides a greater resistance to abrasion to the rope.
Summum System
Summum is the constructive System of the KORDA’S third generation. This join the already known Stability and Titan System, achieving with this a maximum union between core and sheath and an even higher safety, thanks to the addition of the advantages of the two different systems with proved experience.
Durability
High resistance to abrasion and more pleasant to the touch.
