Capital Safety DBI-SALA Rollgliss Rope-Mate Mechanical Prusik

Capital Safety has added the DBI-SALA Rollgliss Rope-Mate Mechanical Prusik to their RollglissTechnical Rescue range.

The product provides a tamper-proof mechanical prusik that eliminates the use of knots or hitches that could be tied incorrectly. Manufactured from a single self-contained unit, its compact and lightweight design ensures good handling and performance with no protruding bolts or pins that get in the way.

The prusik is constructed from anodised aluminium with a stainless steel axle and is load rated for up to 250 kg on a variety of kernmantle ropes. The non-invasive cam locks down onto the rope when required and ensures no rope damage while maintaining maximum hold. If overloaded, however, it is engineered to slip to avoid damage.

The product can also be safely removed or installed at any point on the rope without the need to remove the device from the karabiner connected to its attachment point, thereby reducing the risk of an accidental drop.
