Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cable core flipline used for?
A cable core flipline is a work positioning lanyard used by arborists to secure themselves to a tree trunk or limb while climbing or working at height. The steel cable core provides rigidity and cut resistance compared to rope-core fliplines, making it well-suited for use around chainsaw work and rough bark surfaces.
What is Hi-V covering on a flipline?
Hi-V is a high-visibility, abrasion-resistant cover material used over the steel cable core. It protects the cable from wear and environmental damage while making the flipline easier to inspect for damage and more visible in the canopy.
What length flipline should I choose?
Flipline length depends on the diameter of the trees you typically climb. An 8 ft flipline suits smaller diameter trunks, a 10 ft flipline is a versatile all-around choice, and a 12 ft flipline is best for large-diameter trees or when extra reach is needed. When in doubt, a 10 ft is the most common choice for general arborist work.
Does the Teufelberger Hi-V flipline have a swivel snap?
Yes. The Teufelberger 1/2" Hi-V Cable Core Flipline features a double locking steel snap with swivel, allowing for easy one-handed operation and smooth repositioning around the tree without the snap binding or twisting.
