ISC Squirrel Rope Wrench Kit

Description

The ISC Singing Tree Rope Wrench has become a well-established, popular tool within the production climbing industry and in tree climbing competitions.

The Rope Wrench provides an ‘S’ bend in the rope above the hitch cord.  This effectively provides a contained double rope system, on a single rope.  The Rope Wrench shares the user’s weight between the Wrench and the hitch.  This allows the operation of the hitch, without the need for a double-rope system. The Rope Wrench allows easy horizontal movement, with greatly reduced friction on re-directs (compared with DdRT).

The Rope Wrench system has been third-party tested and certified by a Notified Body, to PPE ‘Regulation 2016/425′, allowing users to climb in compliance with the latest European best practice regulations.

IMPORTANT, PLEASE NOTE:

The PPE Regulations Certification applies to kits when used in their entirety, in accordance with the User Instruction Manual.
