The DMM Revolver is a ground breaking concept that has gained legendary status for industrial and recreational use. Take the advantages of lightweight aluminium connectors and morph them with a roller wheel from a pulley and you've got an incredibly versatile piece of equipment: counterweight rescues, clipping tight lines, hauling chainsaws, deviating running ropes, etc. the list goes on.
For rock climbing, the Revolver's integrated pulley wheel allows ropes to run more efficiently through the carabiner. Used at changes of direction on a route, it helps reduce rope drag.
A locking gate gives the Revolver extra security.
The DMM Revolver's integrated pulley wheel allows ropes to run more efficiently through the carabiner. Used at changes of direction on a route, it helps reduce rope drag.
Features:
Keylock nose eliminates snagging: This carabiner's nose slots into a groove in the gate, allowing it to achieve full strength without a gate notch. This creates a clean internal profile that won't catch on gear, bolts or slings, giving easier clipping and removal from systems.
I-Beam construction for optimum strength to weight ratio: I-Beam construction techniques allow carabiners to be lighter without compromising strength. This is achieved through hot forging, a process which allows metal to be made into complex shapes that improve functionality.
Integrated pulley wheel for reducing friction: The Revolver's pulley wheel reduces friction and increases efficiency of ropes running over it, this reduces rope drag on complex pitches. The Revolver can also be used to create mechanical advantage in a lightweight personal hauling system, making it indispensable as part of a climber's personal rescue kit. The pulley wheel is functional with loads up to 11kN.
Locking Gate Types:
Screwgate: Manual locking gate requiring screwing/unscrewing of the barrel to lock/unlock.
Kwiklock: Auto-locking gate requiring two distinct actions to open.
Locksafe: Auto-locking gate requiring three distinct actions to open.
Durolock: Auto-locking gate requiring four distinct operations to open. Force must be maintained throughout or the gate returns to safe (locked).
Kwiklock ANSI: Same gate action as Kwiklock but the connector is also required to exceed 16kN in minor axis, side load and gate face tests.
Locksafe ANSI: Same gate action as Locksafe but the connector is also required to exceed 16kN in minor axis, side load and gate face tests.
