Manually controlled ascent device - The handheld ascender is used in combination with your climbing or rescue harness to create a high performance, versatile and efficient ascent system that utilises a locking cam for ascending rope lifelines
Ergonomic design - The hand ascender is ergonomically shaped and includes a comfort grip handle for added ease of use in a variety of conditions and ascents
Multiple rigging points - Features 4 rigging points, two at the top and two at the bottom for organising your lines and the attachment of connecting devices such as carabiners, lanyards, foot loops and other equipment to create a diverse range of effective and safe ascent systems.
Ideal for positioning operations - Due to the unique cam design and pick configuration the ascenders protect the rope from “de-sheathing”, where the cam strips the outer sheath of the kernmantle rope, making this ascender suitable for positioning operations and as a load point on a rope.
Non-invasive cam teeth - The cam features a series of specially designed stainless steel investment cast teeth (grip points), these protrusions grip the rope without damaging the sheath while allowing it to naturally feed through the device in one direction only, holding the line
Easy one handed cam operation - Trigger style cam latch allows for easy one-handed installation and removal of the ascender
Designed for left handed use - Specially configured for left handed use, models constructed for right handed use also available
Self cleaning cam - Cam features self cleaning holes to remove mud and/or ice from the rope while climbing for added safety
Integrated safety catch - Prevents the cam from opening too far, ensuring the rope remains captured during use for added safety and security
Suits 10.5-13mm kernmantle rope - For added flexibility this simple to rig ascender is ideal for use on 10.5-13mm kernmantle rope depending on your application
High strength aluminum construction - Extruded aluminum construction with anodized finish for superior corrosion resistance, stainless steel model also available for specialist applications
