The lever can be opened using one hand making installation and removal from the rope quick and easy. The cam is made of steel to be resistant to wear, yet the main body is an aluminium alloy to keep the device lighter in weight.

The Climbing Technology Chest Ascender + is a chest ascending device to capture progress as you move up a rope. This is made specific by the angle manufactured into the lower connection hole, so that the device remains parallel to the user while working. The cam is made of steel to increase wear resistance throughout the devices life, while the body is an aluminium alloy to keep the weight down to 147g.

A revolutionary chest ascender that features two proprietary rollers for a smooth interface with the rope. This not only helps with climbing efficiency by making the upward glide much smoother. It also reduces dangerous wear and tear on the device where the rope tends to rub on the body of a traditional ascender.

The SafeTec ENForcer-H is a non-aggressive device and during correct operational use it will not damage ropes. In emergency deployment with the exception of very minor glazing a properly used EN Forcer will lock on to the Back-Up rope without causing serious damage to itself, its lanyard, karabiners or to the rope.

The4 Kong Cam Clean has been constructed with the latest range of Kong blockers. Providing an excellent ability to lock even on muddy and icy ropes. This is achieved by the holes on the cam. The opening lever is ergonomic and easy to use, protected from shocks and the risk of accidental opening. New materials and production methods provide a much higher surface hardness resulting in greater wear resistance and less fragility.

The Heightec Pulsar (X-Cam) is a handled ascender for use in rope access. It has been found to be 25% stronger than its most popular sharp toothed competitor, with a breaking load of up to 675kg. Heightec X-Cam ascenders will significantly reduce the possibility of a complete system failure by exerting a considerable hold on a rope after the sheath has broken. It is available in both right and left handed versions.

The Petzl Tibloc is a compact and ultra-lightweight ascender for use on rope ascents, hauling systems or friction knot replacement in self-rescue situations. The Tibloc has an automatic system that presses the karabiner against the rope to start the braking action. To work well, the original Tibloc should be used with a round bar karabiner. Whilst the new version with the plastic easy release mechanism will work with most karabiners we recommend the Petzl Attache.

The Climbing Technology Chest Ascender HC is a right-handed, light alloy chest ascender for climbing up ropes, to be used together with the Quick'Up+ ascender handle. This version has a special wear-proof hard coating that makes it ideal for prolonged use.
