With many people trying to mark their equipment for logbooks and
security, the question of marker pens and the effect they have on rope
and webbing has been around for a long time.
Bluewater Products have posted the following in their FAQ's section.
What is the beta on marking pens?
Marking pens are fine to use on ropes as long as they are water based
laundry markers. Years ago solvent based markers were the norm. Some of
the solvents used in these old pens could reduce the strength of the
sheath strands marked. These days most pens are water based so this is
not as much of an issue as in years passed. We recommend a Sharpie "rub a
dub" laundry marking pen.
We are pleased to announce that we have the latest Petzl rope access and fall protection harness, the AVAO, in store now.
With a newly designed chest ascender, more padding, extra gear loops and many more new features, the Petzl AVAO harness range is quickly becoming a hit within the industry.
These harnesses have been designed for use in rope access work, work positioning and fall arrest situations.
