The Figure of 8 descender is used for lowering or abseiling. Manufactured from high strength aluminium alloy. It has a large eye with room for an extra karabiner and ears to prevent the rope rolling into a locked position. The figure of 8 does twist the rope and is best used on firm rather than soft rope. It is not recommended for use with rope that comes straight out of a rope bag.

It should only be used with a back-up safety lock, such as a Rocker or Prussic style rope lock.

Our A-B Descender has been designed for technical rope access, intervention, and rescue. It has a handle style control that can be used in two modes, either squeeze the handle or flip it down to give extra leverage when required. There is a spring fitted to help keep the handle close to the body when not in use and is also fitted with a panic grab brake.

The A-B Descender fully conforms with two European standards, these are; EN12841-C rope adjustment device (descenders) and EN341-B descenders for rescue. The two standards are very different, EN12841-C covers the device only, so that it can be used with different types of kernmantle rope.

EN341 is the standard for a descent rescue/egress system and any system conforming to this standard must be used with the type of rope with which it was tested.

Any strength quoted is when the product is new and is in accordance with the appropriate standards.
