These specialized pulleys are built for our AZTEK Rescue System. Machined from a solid block of high strength aluminum, they are engineered to handle high loads. The swivel eye connection eliminates twisting of the rope and can accommodate up to three carabiners. Each block is a different color to ensure differentiation during operation.

EN 12278

The AZTEK OMNI pulley blocks and sheaves are machined from solid aluminum, feature swivel connection points, and utilize high-efficiency bearings. These pulleys were developed in the early 2000s by Reed Thorne of Sedona based Ropes That Rescue. The AZTEK system has become a valuable multipurpose tool of rescue and technical rope access practitioners. The AZTEK pulleys are offered individually or included in our AZTEK ProSeries System (item # 500104).

Note: The Slate blue pulley includes the AZTEK quick release pin and the Orange pulley comes with the side becket cover and screw.

Features

The CMC AZTEK ProSeries System is the first AZTEK system to be UL Classified to NFPA 1983 (2017 ED) – General Use – Manufactured System. The system is thoughtfully designed to support rescue teams and each component has been tested and proven to work efficiently in a multitude of lab and field scenarios. Everything comes pre-rigged and fully assembled for immediate deployment.

The set-of-fours includes 15.2 m (50 ft) of 8 mm AZTEK ProSeries Cord, which is CMC’s high-performance 100% nylon blend. These can extend to 3.6 m (12 ft) while providing a 4:1 or 5:1 mechanical advantage with a Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS) of 38 kN (8,542 lbf).

The design of our redesignedCSR2 (Confined Space Rescue) Pulley is stronger yet lighter and incorporates 7/16 in (11 mm) to 1/2 in (13 mm) lifesafety rope. Ideal for industrial applications as well as many rescue operations, the CSR2 uses our proprietary, patented locking system, which eliminates a toothed cam or Prusik so it can be easily and safely released while under load. (The absence of the toothed cam means that even if the system is fully collapsed and pulled tight, it can still be released easily. Systems using a toothed cam must be raised even further before the cam can be released, which can be impossible if the system is fully collapsed without thinking about this problem ahead of time causing potential problems with the load on the system becomingstuck.) An integral thrust-bearing swivel reduces torque by aligning the pulley with the load, thereby increasing efficiency and safety. Its larger size allows for the easy application of rescue-size carabiners.

Machined from a solid block of aircraft-grade aluminum, the CSR2 features a high-strength aluminum side plate, sealed bearings and anodized aluminum sheaves. The side becket location allows for maximum lift height and full retraction of the system, and a removable becket cover facilitates changing out lifeline with sewn terminations.

• Compatible with 11-13mm life safety rope
• Meets NFPA 1983 (2017 ED) General Use
• CSR2 Pulley MBS 46 kN (10,341 lbf)/CSR2 Double Pulley MBS 45 kN (10,116 lbf)

Max Rope Diameter: 13.0 mm

Our Single Prusik-Minding Pulleys and Double Prusik-Minding Pulleys are specifically designed to keep the progress capture prusik from getting sucked up into the pulley system and allowing a rescuer to tend to another task. Both single and double versions are compatible with ropes up to 13 mm. All Sterling pulleys are constructed from high-strength aluminum side plates and feature a sealed ball bearing sheave that helps keep out dirt and grit.

This lightweight, full-strength, Prusik-minding pulley is ideal for mountain rescue, swiftwater rescue, or technical teams where equipment weight is a significant consideration. By machining the side plates, the thickness of the metal can be varied to maximize the strength-to-weight ratio, a process that cannot be done with traditional bent metal side plates. Sealed ball bearings provide high efficiency, and aluminum side plates protect the rope. An extremely low-profile stainless steel axle assembly reduces snagging on rocks, roots, and uneven surfaces. Designed for lifeline up to 1/2 inch (13 mm) in diameter.

Available in Single or Double versions.

Do not load a single side only of a double sheave pulley.

Our Kootenay Ultra Pulley is the most functional, versatile knot-passing and high-strength tie-off pulley available. For high lines, the rigging holes allow for optimum separation of tag lines and hoist ropes for reeving variations. For English and Norwegian reeves, a greater spread between the hoist pulleys significantly reduces the chance of inadvertent spinning of the load. Separate rigging holes make rigging easier and also prevent carabiners from binding against each other. For high-strength tie-offs, the integrated sheave-lock pin inserts easily into the sheave-lock hole from its stowed axle position. The strong, durable anodized aluminum sheave is fitted with sealed ball bearings for long wear and high efficiency.
