Rope Clamps

The SafeTec ENForcer-H is a non-aggressive device and during correct operational use it will not damage ropes. In emergency deployment with the exception of very minor glazing a properly used EN Forcer will lock on to the Back-Up rope without causing serious damage to itself, its lanyard, karabiners or to the rope.

The Petzl ASAP is a mobile fall arrest device with a unique locking system, an essential for anyone working at height. The ASAP will follow the user along the rope without any manual intervention, and in the event of sudden acceleration the ASAP will lock on the rope and stop the user. The ASAP is easily attachable and removable making it simple but effective for users.

The Petzl Chicane auxiliary braking device allows Zigzag and Zigzag Plus mechanical Prusiks to be used on single ropes. It provides continuous additional friction on descents. The excellent compatibility of the Chicane and mechanical Prusik as an assembled unit ensures smooth rope glide through the brake during ascents. The ergonomic handle provides excellent grip and facilitates movement while limb walking. Thanks to the openable side plate, installation is quick and easy.

The Beal Monitor fall arrester has a swivelling side plate for ease of installation on the rope and to limit wear and tear. A lateral brake converts the Monitor into a rope clamp for work positioning. It can also easily follow the operator both up and down and lock in the event of a fall.

The Climbing Technology Chest Ascender + is a chest ascending device to capture progress as you move up a rope. This is made specific by the angle manufactured into the lower connection hole, so that the device remains parallel to the user while working. The cam is made of steel to increase wear resistance throughout the devices life, while the body is an aluminium alloy to keep the weight down to 147g.

The Petzl Asap'sorber Axess is an energy absorber to be used to connect the ASAP or ASAP LOCK to the harness. It allows the user to keep the rope at a distance which can be useful to declutter the work area and keep the line away from sharp tools or hot metal. The fall absorption properties come from the tearing of stitches in the webbing reducing the impact force on the user.

Ergonomics and comfort were priorities when designing the Beal Hands Up handled ascender. It is equipped with a reinforced grip area, making it more comfortable and practical. This design allows a two-handed grip during rope ascents: on the side under the trigger as well as on the top. The opening of the cam is facilitated by an ergonomic offset lever. This control mechanism is made entirely of metal for durability.

The Croll Strap enables the Petzl Croll chest ascender to be used effectively in conjunction with a wide range of Petzl professional work at height harnesses. It allows the top of the Croll to be held in an upright position, close to the body, enabling the rope to run smoothly through the device thereby reducing 'lost' movement.

The Beal Hold Up has an offset mounting hole offset at a 90° angle. This allows the rope clamp to remain vertical and flat for excellent fluidity during ascent. In addition, the low attachment on the harness increases the amplitude of each movement. And for even more comfort, the opening of the cam is facilitated by an ergonomic remote lever.

The ISC Rocker can be fitted to the rope at any point and can be used hands-free as a self-tailing device when travelling up or down the rope. The Rocker is designed for use without a shock-absorber and can be used as a Rope Adjuster or on a work positioning lanyard/Flipline, (In accordance with EN358).

The Petzl ASAP Lock is a mobile fall arrest device with the added function of a lock. The lock allows the user to immobilize the device to reduce the length of a fall. As with the Petzl ASAP, the ASAP Lock locks on the rope when it is shock loaded, stopping the user from falling any further. The connection arm makes the system loss-resistant when passing intermediate anchors. Please note, the ASAP LOCK must be used with an energy absorbing lanyard to work at a distance from the rope.

The petzl ZigZag is a mechanical Prusik that allows the user to move around efficiently in a tree using a classic Prusik pulley system technique. The friction chain provides precision and fluidity when moving around. The pulley is mounted on sealed ball bearings to allow the slack to be taken up easily. Can be used on either doubled ropes or a single rope, providing great versatility.

The Petzl Rescucender is an openable cam-loaded rope clamp designed for use in haul systems as a tractor or progress capture device. It is simple to use and ergonomic.

The Petzl Basic ascender is a lightweight, compact and multi-purpose ascender that works great for hauling systems, ascending fixed lines or as self-protection when climbing with a fixed rope. A self cleaning cam and angled teeth ensure a secure grip on the rope.

The Petzl Shunt works as a rappel back-up and is used below the rappel device. The Shunt replaces self-jamming knots like the Prussik and works on single and double ropes. The Shunt has smooth clamping surfaces which won't damage your rope. Designed for multi-pitch climbing and aid climbing the Shunt can also be used for mountaineering.

The Petzl Ascentree is a clamp for ascending trees using double ropes and footlocks or pantin foot ascenders. The cam is chrome-plated steel with angled teeth and self-cleaning slot to grip the rope even when muddy or icy. It is integrated into the clamp to stop rubbing.
