ISC RED Back-up Device with Fixed Tow Cord

Features:

• Standard or Alternative positioning
• Positive locking spring
• Rotational braking

The ISC RED Back-up Device with Fixed Tow Cord has non-aggressive cams have a positively locking spring which means the device is self-parking rather than self-tailing. This is important for Rope Access work techniques as they require the back-up device to be positioned so as to reduce fall factors to a minimum. The RED makes use of ‘Rotational Braking’ which means that the more the device rotates clockwise the more friction is built up and this provides an automatic brake even in the event of a sudden pull on the cows-tail.

The RED makes use of 'Rotational Braking' which means the device rotates clockwise creating friction and resistance, which then results in very effective automatic braking in the event of a sudden pull on the cows-tail such as might occur during a main line failure.
