Description: Petzl Shunt - Rope grab device for use by work at height personnel as an ascender. This device is 'non-aggressive' as the grab element is a smooth clamp (no teeth) which will operate when the device is loaded i.e. in a fall. The device will not normally slide up or down a rope unaided so requires the operator to re-position it as they move when ascending.
Size: For use with a single rope of a diameter between 10 and 11mm or double ropes of between 8 and 11mm.
Conformity: EN567
Breaking Load: 20kN. Slips between 1 - 8 kN (Depending on rope diameter)
