Mike from British Columbia asked:
Q. What is the difference between the standard Tenex, and the Tenex TEC?
The TreeStuff Experts answered:
A. Tenex is has a single carrier. Tenex Tec has a double carrier. This means Tenex Tec is slightly smoother. Samson explains it like this "Tenex-TEC is specifically designed with two ends per carrier. This construction allows more rope surface conformance to objects being lifted than standard single braid constructions."

J from Fairfax, VA asked:
Q. Can Tenex TEC be used as a safety lanyard?
The TreeStuff Experts answered:
A. Yes, in theory, but we do not recommend it. Tenex Tec is a hollow braid polyester without a cover. It will "pick" badly when run it over bark and does not handle this type of abrasion well. Abrasion resistance is one of the primary qualities you look for in a positioning lanyard.
