BMS Long Frame Micro Brake Rack

A compact all stainless steel rack made as a "U" frame configuration with 3 heavy duty tubular stainless steel bars. The narrow U shaped design yields a compact easy to use rack. Long version for use with 7/16" (11 mm) and 1/2" (12.5 mm) ropes. This version has a second inverted hyper-bar below the top hyper-bar (see pic.). This modification allows the user to take an additional wrap around the hyper-bars to further increase the load handling abilities of these devices. This modification has been widely accepted in the Fire and Search & Rescue communities as providing a compact and safe alternative to traditional 6 bar open frame racks. Dimensions 10.5" x 2.75" x .75 (26.6 x 7 x 1.9 cm). Weight 16.5 oz. (474 g). Strength 14,000 lbf. (62 kN).

Suitable for lowering rescue size loads (2-person). The double hyper bar system automatically increases braking as the input force increases. Will not twist the rope Top and Bottom bars are a "Hyper Bar" which improves friction control and makes locking off easier.

Perfect for any mountain rescue team that needs to travel fast and light.

Frame rated breaking strength by manufacturer: 63kN

(14,000 lbf). Weight: 448g, Length: 27cm x 7cm.

Note Rope damage occurs at 25.9kN
