Lowering

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.
