Arborist Ropes - Safety & Climbing

Buxtons provide rope equipment from climbing rope and lowering rope to bags and other accessories like cleaner and shrink tube. Marlow is one of the most popular brands for ropes, and they specialise in the design and manufacture of technically innovative rope products using the very latest hi-tech and exotic man made fibres. Marlow began in 1807, and today they have a brand new purpose built factory and warehouse and continue to manufacture quality British ropes. We have a great choice of Marlow ropes including the Chameleon; tough in construction 16 plait, Polyester cover and parallel laid nylon core.

When a rope becomes a line: rope equipment from Buxton's

Ropes from Marlow and Yale have been produced specifically with the arborist in mind. Buxton's bring products for tree climbing and descending, not only from the aforementioned brands, but also ropes and accessories from Buckingham, Petzl, Stein and New England.

The experienced arborist understands that to perform the job effectively and safely, there are specific types to suit their requirements. This is based on correct application for each rope, types of fibre and how they are constructed. Colour is also important, primarily to act as quick reference indicators. For climbing, ropes available from Marlow and Yale include the Chameleon and Blaze respectively. Available in plain or spliced eye versions, this cordage is ideal for the arborist.

Among the lowering rope equipment from Buxton's, the hairy matt finish of the Marlow Nelson is the industry standard lowering bull rope. Built to the bull standard and available in yellow and orange, Yale's Double Esterlon is coated with Yale's own Tree-Grade Maxijacket urethane.

Taking care of your rope equipment

Not only providing the ropes, but also the accessories to help maintain and carry, Buxton's has a great selection for you. For cutting and adapting, the rope heat gun is essential, ensuring an accurate and neat finish for cutting or adapting cordage. Rope bags from Silver Bull and Marlow ensure that your ropes and rope equipment are carried securely and safely.

You'll wonder how you've managed without it if you've never used the rope marking kit, much like the Beal rope cleaner and rope brush. Buxton's provides everything you need, the upkeep and caretaking of your ropes, and rope equipment.
