Technical Details
Why Choose the Courant Phoenix?
Courant is a French rope manufacturer, and the Phoenix's aramid sheath is a genuine practical advantage over standard polyester hitch cords — significantly better heat resistance where friction hitches generate localised heat under load, plus improved UV and wear resistance for a longer working life.
Certified Protection Explained
CE EN795-B covers anchor devices, and the Phoenix carries this certification specifically when used as a lanyard. Note that strength figures differ by diameter: the 8mm variant is rated lower than the 10mm, so choose the diameter appropriate for your intended use and load requirements.
Pairs Well With
Pair with a certified climbing rope and a compatible mechanical friction device to build your hitch system.

FAQs
What's the difference between the 8mm and 10mm variants?
The 10mm has grey seams and higher strength ratings; the 8mm has white seams and lower strength ratings. Both are 70cm in length.
Why does the sheath use aramid fibres?
Aramid offers superior resistance to heat, wear and UV compared to standard polyester, which matters for a cord that generates friction and heat under load.
How do I tell the two diameters apart visually?
By the seam colour — grey seams indicate 10mm, white seams indicate 8mm.
What are the eyes made from?
The cord has two stitched eyes finished with moulded polymer end protectors instead of traditional heat shrink tubing.
Is this cord certified?
Yes, it's certified to CE EN795-B when used as a lanyard.
