Whetman Equipment Power Prussik

The Whetman Equipment Power Prussik is a fast, reliable rope grab designed specifically for hauling systems in river rescue scenarios. Built for use under pressure, it is simple to deploy and intuitive to operate, helping teams work more efficiently when time and resources are limited. The integrated stainless steel ring allows the prussik to function instantly as a pulley when combined with a webbing haul system, reducing reliance on karabiners when they are in short supply on the river. Constructed from durable polyester cord and marine grade stainless steel, the Power Prussik is designed to stabilise loads, improve grip on the haul line, and reduce rope wear when used as part of a double grab system. It is a practical, purpose built tool developed by Whetman Equipment for real world rescue use.
