Yale Yalex™ – 12-Strand Single Braid Polyester Rigging Rope (Maxijacket™ Coated)
Yale Yalex™ is a premium 12-strand single-braid polyester rope engineered for professional rigging and arborist lowering systems. Built with over-finish polyester fiber and a unique two-ends-per-carrier structure, Yalex creates a larger internal void—making it easier to splice and especially helpful when performing used-rope splicing in the field.
Every Yalex rope is finished with Yale’s Maxijacket™ urethane coating to reduce snagging, greatly improve abrasion resistance, and support color coding for application, job setup, or load rating identification.
Pro Tip: If you like the fast handling and easy splicing of 12-strand hollow braid ropes (like Husky-12 style lines), Yalex is a premium alternative with a Maxijacket-coated finish to reduce snagging and extend wear life in high-abrasion rigging environments.
