Self-Braking Descenders
Easy to use, self-braking descenders adapt to a variety of situations encountered
during work at height, rope access work, or technical rescue: descending,
work positioning, short rope ascents, belaying with climbing techniques.
• Wear resistant
• Versatile
• Easy to use
• Compact and lightweight
• With anti-panic function
and anti-error catch
Self-braking descenders are versatile
and can be used for both descents
and short rope ascents.
Installing the rope
The device has a safety gate on the
moving side plate that allows the rope
to be easily installed while the device
remains connected to the harness.
The stainless steel wear plate
improves durability by reinforcing
the rope friction zone.
AUTO-LOCK system
The AUTO-LOCK system allows users to
easily position themselves at a workstation
without having to manipulate the handle
or tie off the device: as soon as the
user releases the handle, the rope is
automatically locked in the device.
Comfortable, controlled descent
The ergonomic handle allows the user
to unblock the rope and comfortably
control the descent. Two descent modes
are possible: on the side plate or in the
V-shaped friction channel.
The RIG descender is compact and lightweight,
and designed for experienced rope access
workers.
Designed for work at height, rope access,
and technical rescue and evacuation,
these devices are equipped with an anti-panic
function and an anti-error catch, to reduce
the risk of an accident due to user error.
They are also compatible with auxiliary brakes,
which help increase the friction for lowering
heavy loads.
