Compact rope clamp for permanent installation on ropes. Intended to be used on fixed ropes (as a back-up), to hoist heavy equipment and to build winches for rescue. Very high safety as the rope must be threaded through the clamp, this gives a significantly lower risk of accidental unlocking. Can replace a Prusik knot to make an adjustable loop. Slides easily up the rope and locks when the cam is loaded. Slides easily down the rope if the cam is prevented from locking. However, if it is overloaded or subjected to heavy trapping pressure, the rope may still slip through. Locking pins provide a higher level of safety. Releasing from the rope requires two separate actions.
