Zigzag Bundle

Description

Zigzag

Mechanical Prusiks allow arborists to optimise their movement within a tree. They are user-friendly and intuitive to use. To meet a variety of needs, they can be used on the doubled rope and the single rope. The lower attachment hole with high-efficiency swivel ensures stable and correct positioning of the mechanical Prusik and optimal rope glide through the device. The technique is identical to that of a classic Prusik pulley system and offers an intuitive grip. The device blocks automatically once the friction chain extends. They can also be used on a single rope, thanks to the CHICANE accessory, which offers more friction on the descent, and the KNEE ASCENT assemblies, which facilitate the ascent. ZIGZAG and ZIGZAG PLUS allow use on doubled ropes. The pulley is mounted on sealed ball bearings to allow the slack to be taken up easily when moving around. The widely spaced side plates also contribute to smooth rope glide. The release lever is mounted on a spring for great precision when moving around. Adjusting the pressure on this lever controls the speed of movement.

Chicane

Auxiliary brake for mechanical Prusik on single ropes, for tree care. The CHICANE auxiliary braking device allows ZIGZAG and ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical Prusiks to be used on single ropes. It provides continuous additional friction on descents. The excellent compatibility of the CHICANE and mechanical Prusik as an assembled unit ensures smooth rope glide through the brake during ascents. The ergonomic handle provides excellent grip and facilitates movement while limb walking. Thanks to the openable side plate, installation is quick and easy.

OK Triact

The lightweight OK karabiner is made of aluminium. It has an oval shape that allows optimal loading of devices with a wide cross-section, such as pulleys, rope clamps and mobile fall arresters. Its fluid interior design and Keylock system facilitate handling. It is available in three locking systems: the automatic TRIACT-LOCK or BALL-LOCK system, or the manual SCREW-LOCK system. OK can be connected to the CAPTIV bar to favour positioning of the karabiner along the major axis, to limit the risk of it flipping and to keep it integrated with the device.
