North Rope Grabs

The North Series Rope Grab is constructed of high strength materials, and plated steel against corrosion for long lasting service. North's FP540 Series Rope Grab is a simple, cost effective solution for fall arrest requirements. Its unique feature Is that Its cam lever Is sprung to allow the cam to engage the lifeline even if the user grabs the cam lever (forcing it open) It the event of a fall. This eliminates the so-called "death grip fall" associated with regular rope grabs. The FP540 Series Rope Grab is designed for use in vertical applications of 16mm (5/8') approved synthetic rope only. It can be adjusted up or down the lifeline with little effort. Should a fall occur, the rope grab would lock onto the lifeline thus arresting the fall, and suspending the user. It can be purchased with attached lanyard or stack absorber, or without a lanyard.
