Edelrid Hot Cutting Device Rope Cutter

Edelrid Hot Cutting Device Rope Cutter

The Edelrid Hot Cutting Device Rope Cutter cuts and melts synthetic rope, tape and other textile fabrics in a single pass. A heated blade parts the fibres and seals the end as it goes, which is the only way to leave a cut that will not unravel on a synthetic rope.

Features and Benefits

Cutting rope with a knife creates a problem you then have to solve. A hot blade removes that second step by fusing the sheath and core as it cuts, so the end is finished the moment the cut is done and there is no taping, whipping or lighter work to follow.

Moreover, a sealed end is a more honest end. A clean fused cut stays the diameter it should be, which matters when the rope has to feed through a belay device or a pulley without snagging on a lump of melted material.

Additionally, the same device handles tape, webbing, cord and sling material. Anyone cutting bulk webbing to length, shortening tat or making up cord loops gets a tidy, durable finish rather than a fraying edge that gets worse every time it is handled.

Edelrid builds it in Germany and sells the blade separately, so the device outlasts the consumable rather than being thrown away with it.

Product-Specific Use Cases

This Edelrid Hot Cutting Device Rope Cutter lives in a gear room rather than a rucksack. It belongs with climbing wall and adventure park operators cutting rope to length, rope access and rigging teams making up cord, and sailmakers, riggers and outfitters working with synthetic webbing. If you buy rope or webbing on the roll, this is the tool that makes it usable.
