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
 
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.
