There are 2 versions of PI the original US version and the CE version. The CE version has a different inner core construction to the US version so it will meet en1891a. To tell them apart the CE version has a yellow flex woven into the outer sheaf. Both PI ropes are exclusive to SherrillTree. Blue Moon is the same construction as the US version of PI but has never be made as a CE version and Yale will not make it as a CE version.

Thanks Nigel, very interesting ! I know abot the yellow Line, but not about the different core construction, could you tell a little more about it, whats the difference (weave, material)? And do you or someone know about the differences of the US and EU Standards ? Doesn't require ANSI a higher Breaking Strength than CE ??

 

Sad to hear about Blue Moon, some Months ago Yale told me they want to CE certify it, sounds like they changed their mind. Do they fear not to sell enough in Europe, what do you think ?

The CE version of PI has a Nylon Inner Core to higher the tensile stregnth and to give it the correct characteristics to meet the CE Standard. CE is much more stringent in testing than ANSI. The discisson not to make a CE version of Blue Moon was made in November.
