i think it was noddy that mentioned it was class b>something todo with breaking load etc i suppose friction hitches dont press on the rope as hard as a lock jack or sj does,ie friction hitches cover a larger service area of rope rather than a sj on one small point.

If you want something that feels like a 13mm rope go for pi or imori.

 

Imori really feels thick 13mm when it's dry but it's a disaster in the wet, IME.

 

Poison Hivee/Ivy feels a touch thinner but is ok. It also falls through the device better than imori.
