Glider tow rope

Aerotow Launching
The method of launching gliders using a tow plane requires a strong, easily reelable cable.

Highly Resistant Cable

Non-elastic cable with high tensile strength.

Its red color is highly visible, making it easy to spot even on the ground at the airfield or in the grass.

Made with a blend of polyester and polypropylene, this tow cable is designed to meet the needs of glider pilots.
The slight elongation of the polyester allows it to absorb shocks for better comfort for both glider and tow plane pilots, without being elastic.

This rope does not absorb water: if the ground is wet, if it passes through damp grass or a puddle, it will not become heavier! Performance and efficiency are guaranteed.
