Starling Protect Pro Dry 8.2mm

Extremely Robust Half Rope with Enhanced Edge-Load Safety.

The Edelrid Starling Protect Pro Dry 8.2mm is a robust, high-performance half rope built to withstand sharp edges. Engineered with Edelrid’s Protect technology, it integrates aramid fibers into the sheath for exceptional cut resistance without sacrificing dynamic performance.

Featuring a higher sheath content and Pro Dry finish, the Starling delivers outstanding durability, water repellency, and dirt resistance, absorbing less than 2% water—well below UIAA standards. Thermo Shield treatment ensures smooth, supple handling, while 3D lap coiling means it’s ready to use straight from the bag without tangles. This rope is the go-to choice for climbers seeking maximum safety and performance in harsh, exposed environments.
