FTC Stiffline Throwline

The FTC Stiffline Throwline is a premium two-component throwline designed for arborists who need excellent reach, reduced tangling and reliable performance when setting lines in difficult tree forks. Built with a highly resistant Dyneema cover and a super-rigid nylon core, it is designed to glide across rough bark while resisting knots and reducing time spent untangling.

Light, smooth and stiff, the FTC Stiffline helps climbers reach higher anchor points with less effort. The Dyneema cover provides excellent glide over bark, while the nylon core gives the line structure, helping it coil less than traditional throwlines and improving throwing distance.

Key Features

  • FTC Stiffline two-component arborist throwline
  • Highly resistant Dyneema cover for excellent glide
  • Super-rigid nylon core helps reduce tangling and knots
  • Designed to slip across rough bark efficiently
  • Helps reach difficult forks and high anchor points
  • Smoother and lighter for easier throwing
  • Stiff construction helps the line coil less than softer lines
  • Very long service life
  • Available in yellow or blue
  • 1.8mm version is easier to handle and well suited to first-time users

Designed for Difficult Tree Forks

When paired with a suitable throwbag, the FTC Stiffline is designed to help reach even difficult forks in the canopy, making it a strong choice for professional climbing line installation and tree access work.

Dyneema Cover for Smooth Glide

Dyneema has an excellent gliding coefficient among textile fibres, making the line useful for adjusting rope position and moving across bark with less drag.

Rigid Nylon Core

The nylon core gives the Stiffline its structured feel, helping it resist coiling and tangling. This makes the line easier to manage and can help improve throwing distance compared with softer throwlines.

Reduced Knots & Less Untangling

The stiff construction helps prevent the line from knotting easily, saving time during setup and reducing frustration when working from the ground.

Important Use Note

FTC recommends undoing the throwbag after each unsuccessful throw. The line is made from very strong material and can be difficult to break without a breaking fuse point.
