Rigging Plates on Harness

[jbrett]

I am converting a harness from a static rope bridge system to one using rigging plates as the leg/hip/bridge connection points so that I may replace the bridge more easily, inexpensively and as needed.

I have Rock Exotica TriRig plates (19mm holes) and Teufelberger Platinum (10.5 mm) line as the bridge. Is this line too small to use with these plates? I guess my concern is that with a smaller diameter line, the stopper knot could pull through under load. Is there any rule of thumb as to what size line can be used safely with certain size plates?

call the manufacturer.

. . . of the plates? they will only verify the factory size of the holes, not their intended use with textiles.
