The Petzl Xion is a super-durable rope dry treated rope. The 10.1 mm diameter is extra durable and the weave is specially designed to offer an excellent hand and a suppleness similar to that of thinner ropes. In addition, the XION has 22% more sheath by weight than comparable ropes in the Petzl lineup. The XION is great for those who want the increased longevity of a larger-diameter rope without sacrificing ease of handling.

• Duratec Dry treatment prevents the rope from absorbing water which can weaken the rope and make it difficult to handle. Before a Petzl rope is constructed the core and sheath strands are individually treated providing water resistance.
• Climb Ready Coil - All Petzl ropes are butterfly coiled at the factory and are made ready to use straight out of the package. This coiling method means no more tangled mess the fist time you use your rope!
• Middle mark - The middle of each petzl rope is marked with a black bar. Its always a good idea to knot the ends of the rope before descent, but this speeds things up a bit.
