Teflon Coating
Har hämtat följande från Mammuts hemsida, det är väl det som avses(?)

It’s not only «Swiss quality» and one hundred percent dependability over a long life span which sets our ropes apart. Our research engineers are continually developing innovative solutions that make Mammut ropes «State of the Art», and which have earned us many awards in neutral tests in the past.
Our exclusive Coating Finish process is a perfect example. This process demonstrates the innovative power that gives Mammut ropes the decisive technological advantage, and which makes them the trend setter for safety and practical usage. With Mammut’s Coating Finish process, the individual rope strands are Teflon coated in order to minimise chafing and improve friction co-efficiency. Loading, e.g. through a fall, is uniformly distributed through each individual filament, thereby optimising performance. (filament = the finest element of a rope). In this way, substantially lighter ropes with the same >number of falls, or ropes which can hold a substantially higher load and have the same weight can be made. Sharp-Edge-Resistance.
In addition to better performance in standard testing, the Coating Finish gives our top ropes further advantages: They have reduced rope drag, absorb less dirt and moisture, are especially easy to handle and maintain their level of performance for longer – we are mastering tomorrow’s technology today!
