Descenders for Technical Rescue

Descenders

AUTO-LOCK system: automatically locks the rope

Excellent hauling efficiency

Comfortable, controlled descent, even with heavy loads

Easy rope installation

The AUTO-LOCK system allows automatic locking of the rope when the handle is not in use. Once locked, the rope can be taken up without having to manipulate the handle.

The faceted sheave creates additional friction zones for the rope, providing extra braking for lowering heavy loads.

The ergonomic handle and integrated brake enable a comfortably controlled descent.

The integrated progress-capture pulley with very large diameter sheave mounted on sealed ball bearings rotates in only one direction for excellent hauling efficiency. The lower connection point can be used to create different types of haul systems.

Markings on the device make rope installation quick and easy.
