The Gefa brace system is a non static bracing system which has numerous advantages over the traditional static steel cable systems.

  • Dynamic, supplemental support allows the tree to sway naturally, building its own tissue to strengthen itself.
  • No Drilling required, therefore no wounds to the tree.
  • Installation is faster and easier than steel cable.
  • Convenient lightweight material.
  • Fewer tools required than steel systems. ( only splicing tool and scissors )
  • Fewer parts required. (18mm∅ rope and the protective chafe sleeve )
  • No rubber insert required to control stretch, flat braid construction
  • Hollow rope, stretchable (polyamide) with 4 t breaking strength. Tracer thread blue.

Dynamics play an increasingly important role in crown protection. With the Gefa hollow ropes, the selected material already provides the leeway that the securing should give the branches. The Gefa hollow ropes have a breaking force of 4 tonnes.

Advantages : You receive a ready-made dynamic crown protection. There is no need to install any aids to reduce jerks. In addition, these hollow ropes are equipped with an early warning system that shows when the safety has reached its limits. These white breakage indicator threads break at around 80% of the maximum load on the rope. During installation, the manufacturer's instructions and regulations must be observed.

PLEASE NOTE: Splicing Fid and chafe sleeve are available as separate additional cost items.
