Climb the rope with a firm grip and a locking action you can trust. This right-hand aluminium ascender is designed for progressing up a rope in rope access work, rescue or caving. The handle gives a firm grip and the cam locks onto the rope when weight is applied.
It is used together with the chest ascender and foot loop to move up the rope with less effort: the hand ascender goes up, the foot loop pushes and the chest ascender holds your position. Aluminium makes it lightweight, which you will appreciate when the kit hangs from you all day.
A well-chosen ascender makes a difference with every metre climbed: your hand tires less, progress is steadier and the cam always responds the same way when your body weight is applied. It is a key part of the personal kit of any rope access professional, whether in construction, industry, rescue or caving.
