5/8″ Steel Cable Core Flipline
For arborists and utility workers who need a heavier-duty positioning lanyard, the 5/8″ Cable Core Flipline is the go-to choice. Built with a 16-strand covered steel core, this flipline delivers the rigidity and strength needed for demanding work aloft. The larger 5/8″ diameter provides added durability and a more substantial feel compared to the 1/2″ version — preferred by many climbers for its solid, confidence-inspiring performance.
The double locking steel snap with swivel enables smooth, one-handed repositioning, keeping your hands free and your movements efficient while working in the tree.
