Quick Overview
Marlow D2
The original D2 is already used as a bench mark by which other ropes are measured, however, for 2008 it has been improved upon and now gives even better performance.
D2 Racing 75 retains the 12 strand Dyneema® SK75 core of the original, but introduces a 24-plait polyester cover. The all new cover not only gives Racing 75 significantly improved load holding in jammers & clutches, but also a 13% improvement in abrasion resistance - and it's easier to splice!
D2 Racing 75 is the cornerstone of Marlow's performance product range, and can also be ordered with colour coded cores and the MArlow Grand Prix cover system, custom made in their Hailsham factory.
