Right Hand Ascension

Basic

A compact ascender, the Basic is the best choice whenever weight and bulk is a concern and a handle is not needed. It combines with the Fixe pulley to create a simple, compact progress capture device for haul systems.    For use on single rope,  8 to 13 mm ø.    

$ 42.95

Croll

Thanks to the twisted position of the attachment hole, the Croll is always held flat against the stomach. The upper rectangular hole allows the attachment of shoulder straps for support. The Croll is fitted with an ergonomically shaped opening clip which is easily gripped between the thumb and index finger.  For use on single rope, 8 to 13 mm ø. Weight: 130 g

Tibloc

This is the smallest and lightest rope clamp / grab on the market. It will get you out of many difficult situations, such as setting up a quick hauling system or climbing a rope. This is an emergency rope clamp / grab which you should always keep close at hand. Weight: 39 g For use on ropes, 8 to 11 mm

$ 19.95

Rescucender

 

Rope Clamp / Grab

The Rescucender is a compact rope clamp / grab designed for hauling heavy loads.  Used for pulling on the rope or as a progress capture device, its unique grooved cam can slip slightly if overloaded.  Installation on the rope is a quick two step process providing greater security.  The Rescucender can also be used as a positioning or safety device when ascending or descending fixed ropes.

$ 59.95

PANTIN  
Foot-mounted rope clamp/grab

A big advantage for long rope ascents. With the Pantin, supporting the foot holds the body in a more upright position and makes the ascent faster and less tiring for the arms. The Pantin is also easily removed from the rope with a simple movement of the foot. The Pantin is used only on the right foot and in complement with the Croll and Ascension rope clamps/grabs: the Pantin is not an item of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). For use on single rope, 8 to 13 mm.

$ 54.95

 

 

Microcender

Very compact, it is designed for use in climbing a rope, back-up belaying or tensioning a tyrolean traverse. It slides on the rope if overloaded. It is installed on the rope using a removable pin and thus completely encloses the rope. For use on single rope, 9 to 13 mm      Weight: 162 g

Fall Protection/ OSHA Accepted 
Rope Grabs

PMI Arrestor Rope Grab
Self trailing fall protection has never been so light. The light weight Arrestor protects your progress without weighing you down. Use on 10.5-12.5mm PMI Classic kernmantle rope without shock absorbing lanyard. Cam is specially designed to slip and absorb force in the event of a fall.
Rope Diameter: 10.5-12.5mm

$69.95

MIO Rope Grab

Exceeds OSHA requirements for personal fall protection equipment - with or without the addition of a shock absorbing lanyard! 

This highly effective self-trailing rope grab grips automatically in the event of a fall and dissipates the energy of the fall by slipping along the rope.  This non-destructive action is highly preferred over shock absorbing lanyards which tear or rip.  Removable dual action pin allows easy placement of rope grab anywhere along the length of the rope.  Requires two hands for installation and removal from the rope.  For use only with approved synthetic low stretch kernmantle life safety rope.

$99.00

Tractel Stopfor D
Fall protection designed for use with 7/16 to 1/2 inch diameter kernmantle rope. An excellent choice for fall arrest or travel resistant with maximum mobility. No force absorber is required for use with the Stopfor D. Constructed with a forged stainless steel housing, the Stopfor D features cam lever that has two ridges for high-speed activation. During the braking process, the ridges give way to the pressure plate of the cam lever, which brakes against the rope in a low arresting force that causes minimum damage to the lifeline.
Max Load Size:
310lbs (140 kg)
Recommended for use with 7/16-1/2"
Stopfor D  --$120.00ea.
    Stopfor D W/ 2ft lanyard & snap hook --$139.00

(ANSI Z359.1 ANSIA10.14, CSA Z259.2.1 Class A-D, OSHA)
