ACCESSORIES
Polyester Accessory Cord
The Polyester Accessory Cord from TEUFELBERGER and NEW ENGLAND ROPES is a low stretch, highly abrasion resistant accessory cord certified to UIAA 102 and EN 564. These multi-purpose lines and accessory ropes are perfect for almost all applications where a small static cord is needed.
Ultra Cord
Ultra light, ultra small and ultra strong – a great cord for general use. The Ultracord’s high strength Dyneema® core gives additional strength even at smallest diameters. The 16 strand cover makes it abrasion and UV-resistant. This cord is your perfect companion for general use in climbing and backpacking.
Prusik Cord
Our Prusik Cord strikes the perfect balance between firm and supple. We engineered our Prusik Cord so that the rope has enough give to grip the climbing rope but is not so mushy that the knot locks up. This results in a smooth hitch cord that is perfect for prusiks and hitches.

About MAXIM Dynamic Ropes
Dynamic climbing ropes are the most important piece of gear you have, because they keep you from hitting the ground. Their high elongation absorbs most of the shock in a fall, thereby taking the load off of your body and your anchors. MAXIM ropes are made of 100% high quality nylon and feature a kernmantle construction with twisted nylon cores and a braided nylon cover. MAXIM’s long lasting dynamic climbing lines are designed as a compact rope with high-energy absorption. Each of our dynamic climbing lines offers excellent handling, superior abrasion resistance and high durability.
Special features of MAXIM dynamic ropes
The core of every dynamic MAXIM Climbing rope is dry treated with our special Endura DRY treatment process, including our indoor gym ropes. This is for the ultimate level of safety protection since nylon loses a lot of strength when wet. In addition, for maximum water-repellency, selected models also feature Endura 2x-DRY and have both a dry core and a specially treated dry cover. Those ropes fulfill the requirements of UIAA water-repellency.
Our Pinnacle and Glider series also feature MAXIM’s TPT (Twill Pattern Technology) which aligns the sheath yarns with the direction the rope moves through your protection. This dramatically reduces rope drag and provides for buttery rappels.
The Chalk Line gym ropes also feature our Str8 Jacket technology, in which we tightly weave the sheath around a mid-sheath which grips the core. These are the longest lasting gym ropes on the planet.
Standards for dynamic climbing ropes
Dynamic climbing ropes are generally certified in three categories; single ropes, half ropes and twin ropes. All of them are certified to the European Standard EN 892 and the international standard UIAA 101. Within these standards, the rope’s construction, sheath slippage, static and dynamic elongation, maximum impact force at first fall as well as the minimum number of falls a rope has to withstand are regulated. Please find more information on climbing rope types and requirements of the standards in our Tech info section.
"MAXIM sets the standard for durability of climbing ropes in the industry. In the end, a rope is our lifeline, and for many years now I've felt 100% confident trusting my life to thee amazing cords. "
