Description

The Ropeman 4 is the latest, innovative evolution of the original Wild Country ascender. This compact rope clamp covers a wide range of technical applications, including emergency rescue, self-rescue, ascending, self-belay and positioning lanyard adjustment. The new, improved side plate grooved closure mechanism prevents lateral sideplate opening when ascending a rope, and ensures that no rope gets stuck between the sideplate and the cam, making it more efficient and safer than comparable devices. Made from lightweight, strong aluminium alloy and designed to work with a wide range of rope diameters, it also works with flat and tubular webbing slings and is compatible with HMS and oval carabiners. The ample cylinder hole design allows full rotation of the device around the carabiner. The Ropeman 4s small, lightweight design makes it easy to carry one on your harness at all times. An essential piece of gear for all vertical adventures.
