					<description><![CDATA[The SPARK TACTICAL is engineered for rigorous, continuous use in the most demanding environments. Tailored specifically for tactical operations, it combines the strengths of leading descent devices used in industrial and rescue settings. SPARK TACTICAL stands out for its design without an anti-panic function, allowing for rapid, precise, and uninterrupted descents. With intuitive, straightforward rope handling, it enables the carabiner to remain connected to the device on the harness. The device’s ergonomic design and precise lever operation ensure exceptional control. The advanced rope guide within the device prevents twisting, kinking, and excessive wear, ensuring durability and reliability in the field.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[LORY is a robust descender and belay device. Its various application areas make the Lory your reliable companion for rope access and rescue (abseiling up to 225 kg load). LORY is used for work positioning, as a restraining device at roofs or slab edges, as a temporary anchor or for fall arrest in flexible cable systems. With LORY, the belaying person can easily feed and take rope. When using the device correctly, it blocks automatically in case of a fall. The LORY PRO model with its unimpeded movement of the cam is the ideal device for industrial purposes. It is equipped with a descent handle that ensures secured and controlled abseiling. The double-stop function blocks if the handle is pulled overly in panic and provides extra safety.

EN 341: max./min. rated load: 30 - 180 kg; max. descent height: 190 m; rope diameter: 11 mm EN 12841-C: max. rated load: 225 kg; rope diameter: 10-12 mm EN 795: rope diameter: 10.5 / 11 mm ANSI Z359.4-2013]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[SIRIUS packs the advantages of the best descenders for industrial and rescue applications into an extremely compact design – for better handling and long service life. It is NFPA rated for both 11mm (7/16”) and 12.5mm (1/2”) ropes and meets ANSI standards.

&#160;

SIRIUS lies perfectly in your hand. The auto-returning operating lever has a particularly small radius of motion so that you can work fast, accurately, more comfortably and safely. During rope insertion, which is intuitive and simple, the carabiner on the harness can stay connected to the device. We designed the route of the rope in such a way that it is protected from twisting and kinking, and from excessive wear and tear. SIRIUS was developed for extended use under the toughest of conditions. That’s why it is made of up to 100 % metal – without any vulnerable synthetic spots. SIRIUS. Best ergonomics and long service life in its most compact form.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Prism™ descender is a completely new product which offers great functionality to rope access workers. It contains two new patented principles; a mechanism which multiplies the braking force applied by the user providing fine control, and a new design of a secondary brake which minimizes the possibility of uncontrolled descent. An additional capability of this device is the ability to unthread the secondary braking system, which allows the rope to be easily pulled back through the device during short ascents.
<div class="memo_separator"></div>
Key Features:
Double-breaking mechanism will stop if released or panic squeezed • Parts visible for easy inspection and maintenance • Designed for rope diameters between 10.5 mm and 11.5 mm • High strength aluminum with stainless steel friction surfaces • Patented variable friction design eliminates the need for a 2nd carabiner • User can switch between configurations under load]]></description>
