Version with high-efficiency swivel

Standard version

The lower attachment hole with high-efficiency swivel provides stable and correct positioning of the mechanical Prusik and optimal rope glide through the device.

The lower attachment hole is fixed to maintain alignment of the device with the axis of the worker and to optimize grip.

Mechanical Prusiks for Tree Care

Versatile

For efficient movement

Intuitive design

Use on a single rope They can also be used on a single rope, thanks to the CHICANE accessory, which offers more friction on the descent, and the KNEE ASCENT assemblies, which facilitate the ascent.

Slack easily taken up The pulley is mounted on sealed ball bearings to allow the slack to be taken up easily when moving around. The widely spaced side plates also contribute to smooth rope glide.

Use on doubled ropes ZIGZAG and ZIGZAG PLUS can be used on doubled ropes.

Smooth, precise rope feed The release lever is mounted on a spring for great precision when moving around. Adjusting the pressure on this lever controls the speed of movement.

The technique is identical to that of a classic Prusik pulley system, offering immediate usability. The device locks automatically once the friction chain is extended.

Mechanical Prusiks allow arborists to optimize their movement within a tree. They are user-friendly and intuitive to use. To meet a variety of needs, they can be used on doubled ropes or a single rope.

ZIGZAG® Mechanical Prusik for tree care The ZIGZAG mechanical Prusik allows the user to move around efficiently in a tree using 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 lower attachment hole is fixed to maintain alignment of the device with the axis of the worker and to optimize grip.

ZIGZAG® PLUS Mechanical Prusik with high-efficiency swivel, for tree care The ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical Prusik allows the user to move around efficiently in a tree using 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 lower attachment hole with high- efficiency swivel provides stable and correct positioning of the mechanical Prusik and optimal rope glide through the device.

Accessory

CHICANE Auxiliary brake for mechanical Prusik on single ropes, for tree care The 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 provides smooth rope glide through the brake during ascents. The ergonomic handle provides excellent grip and facilitates movement while limb walking. With the openable side plate, installation is quick and easy.
