Pelican Rope Matador Bull Rope – Double Braided Arborist Rigging Rope, Made in the USA

Overview

Meet Matador, Pelican Rope's bull rope built for arborists and rigging professionals. Its design blends a tough nylon core with a protective polyester cover, delivering a rope that stays flexible while resisting abrasion in demanding outdoor work. Made in the USA, Matador stands up to repeated use, maintaining control and balance under load.

Why Matador excels in real-world settings

Matador is crafted with tree work in mind. The nylon core cushions sudden loads and helps keep the line balanced, while the polyester mantle guards the core from wear during climbs and descents. This combination aims to provide a steady, predictable rope that feels reliable during routine rigging tasks.

• Shock absorption with even balance for smoother handling
• Easily spliceable design to simplify on-site rigging
• Double braided construction for consistent firmness and secure control

Material and build

The rope uses a double braided kernmantle construction, pairing a nylon core with a polyester cover. This layout favors durability, a steady rope feel, and dependable performance under load. Available in defined lengths to suit various jobs.

• Nylon core for impact resistance and flexibility
• Polyester cover for abrasion resistance and longevity
• Double braid for controlled stiffness and reliable rope handling

Lengths and availability

Choose from 150 ft, 200 ft, or 600 ft to fit different project scopes. Longer lengths enable greater reach for canopy work or higher climbs, while shorter options can be easier to handle in tight spaces.

Care & handling

To extend life, inspect the rope for signs of wear, avoid sharp edges, and store in a dry place away from direct sun when not in use. Matador is designed for repeated professional use, offering consistent performance across projects.
