Sliding fall arrest device for rope, compact
An indispensable component in your fall protection system, the ASAP accompanies you in your daily activities as a worker at heights. Under normal usage, during your rope movements, the device moves freely without the need for manipulation. In the event of a fall or uncontrolled descent (more than two meters per second), the device locks onto the rope and stops you. Depending on your needs, choose an energy absorber ASAP’SORBER 20 or 40 to work comfortably at varying distances from the rope.
