Petzl Rescucender
When you are rigging a heavy haul or a complex rescue system, you need a rope grab that is both powerful and easy to manipulate. The Petzl RESCUCENDER is a favourite among rescue professionals because of its "open-cam" design. Unlike traditional clamps that require you to thread the rope through the device, the Rescucender can be opened and attached at any point along the line. This makes it incredibly efficient for setting up "tractors" in mechanical advantage systems. Its ergonomic design means it fits naturally in your hand, and the integrated springs prevent the device from accidentally sliding down the rope when it isn't under tension.
Key Features:
- Open-Cam Functionality: The cam can be opened, allowing the device to be installed or removed at any point on the rope—perfect for mid-line rigging.
- Safety Catches: Equipped with two independent safety catches on each side of the device to reduce the risk of accidental opening.
- Large Attachment Hole: Designed to facilitate carabiner rotation, ensuring your connectors sit properly even in complex hauling configurations.
- Supple Cam Action: The cam is designed to grip the rope firmly without causing excessive wear, making it a reliable Petzl rope clamp for intensive industrial use.
- Integrated Springs: Features a spring-loaded cam that stays in position on the rope, preventing the device from "falling" away from the load when tension is released.
