Wild Edge Rope size?

[Guff Dawg]

Does anyone know what brand and size of rope WE uses to make their tethers and lineman’s ropes? Specifically, I am wanting to add a friction hitch to my tether. I am leaning towards a Distel hitch at this moment. I’m okay with learning new knots as well. Just wanting to eliminate one more piece of metal from my set up. Thanks in advance

There newest rope they came out with is their tactical saddle line. It’s 8mm

It's 8mm oplux. I run that with a Kong duck and my friction hitch is a Sterling 6mm autoblock. Grabs very well

I had the same question - checked WEI website, lists tethers and lineman rope as 7/16 inch, which I figure is .4375 inch or 11.11mm.

Thank you for the clarification. Any idea of the brand name? I suppose it doesn’t matter, but wanted to be sure I use a properly mated friction hitch rope. Thanks everyone.
