13mm Red Rope Wrench w/Double Tether

Description: The RP283 Rope Wrench is a specialized device, which has been developed to achieve optimal friction performance on ½” (13mm) rope. The rope diameter range of the original Rope Wrench (RP280) is 11-13mm (7/16 - 1/2") rope. Feedback from climbers identified that the friction levels when using the RP280 Wrench on ropes of <13mm, were optimal, but that moving up to 13mm rope, offered additional friction. The new 13mm-optimised Rope Wrench has therefore been designed to offer climbers using 13mm rope, levels of friction comparable to that of using 11mm Rope, with the original RP280 Rope Wrench. The Twin Leg Tether has two attachment legs, which allow the tether to straddle a cranked hitch-minding pulley. The top attachment is fitted with a rubber grommet, which prevents excessive 'sit back' of the Rope Wrench, which means that the Rope Wrench can be correctly positioned for minimal friction during ascent, but will engage quickly on rope during descent. The tether is made from 100% Technora cord, for strength, rigidity and abrasion resistance. The Tether features contrasting grey stitching and is fitted with a transparent cover, allowing the user to perform a visual inspection of the stitching.
