    These super-strong open runners are ideal for anchoring and general use.

    • Made from a blend of nylon and lightweight, yet very strong, Spectra® fibers
    • A lightweight and compact alternative to larger, bulkier nylon webbing
    • Sewn with Spectra thread for superior strength
    • Available in lengths: 6", 12", 24", 36" and 48"; width 9/16 "

    Warning: Never convert the Titan/Spectra Runner into a knotted sling because the Spectra fiber may cause the knot to slip under very low loads.

    Made in USA.

        Comments about BlueWater Titan/Spectra Runner - 9/16'':

        I own a bunch of the old ones, and wanted to get a couple new, and a couple replacements, these are thinner than advertised here... BW says they are 13mm, 9/16 is 14.3mm. Doesn't sound like much but it is noticable, and I really don't like them for that.

          I have both the shoulder length and double shoulder length runners. These runners are extremely versatile from toprope setup to the use as a sling.

            Unlike the older Bluewater Spectra, this measures 7/16" instead of 9/16". Very strong and lightweight but does not exactly suit my purpose. I really needed 9/16".

            Delivery was much faster than expected.

              Comments about BlueWater Titan/Spectra Runner - 9/16'':

              Great alpine runner! I have many and they perform well. I have no doubts about falling on these. Not as light as the Mammut Dyneema slings, but who cares? I will continue to buy these slings. The weight savings between these and the Mammuts is negligible. It's sort of psychological pro in that these are thicker and when doubled up they feel indestructible.

              Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
