Product information & specifications
OMEGA-RQ16 Rigging Line Spliced 16mm
The OMEGA-RQ16 Rigging Line is a heavy-duty 16mm arborist rigging rope engineered for maximum strength, durability and dependable handling in demanding tree work environments. Designed specifically for professional arborists, this rope uses a balanced double-braid construction that distributes load evenly between the core and outer cover, delivering stable performance and long service life during repeated rigging operations.
This version features a 160mm professionally hand-spliced eye termination, allowing quick and secure attachment to rigging blocks, pulleys and lowering devices. The rope’s low elongation (less than 4%) provides greater control when lowering large timber sections, positioning loads or carrying out controlled dismantling work.
Despite its extremely robust build, the OMEGA-RQ16 remains flexible and easy to handle, making it suitable for daily arborist rigging use. Each rope is also equipped with a SMARTPPE scannable traceability system, enabling efficient inspection tracking, equipment management and compliance with professional safety procedures.
Key Features
- Professional 16mm arborist rigging rope

Testing & Strength Information
Rope Body (Un-terminated)
Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS) tested according to ISO 2307 using a bollard-type termination.
Spliced-Eye Strength Rating
Calculated using Sigma standard deviation from five tensile test results performed on hand-spliced eyes.
Test Setup
- Pin-to-pin tensile test
- Pin diameter: 50 mm
- Eye internal length: 500 mm
- Overall specimen length: 2,500 mm
- Double braid rope construction
Note: The spliced-eye strength rating is configuration-dependent and provided as a statistically derived performance rating. It should not replace rope-body MBS unless the end-use configuration matches the stated test setup.
