stopfor® B Trailing Rope Grab

stopfor®  B
trailing rope grab for 5/8 in. (16 mm) three-strand synthetic rope

The stopfor® B trailing rope grab is a specially designed to be incorporated in a fall arrest or travel restraint system where worker mobility and fall protection is required.

This innovative fall arrester is developed arouund the roll-over cam braking principle where in the event of a fall, the unit rotates to exert pressure on the cam axle to effectively stop the fall. 

This is accompanied by the introduction of friction via a bend within the lifeline. This ingenuity in design introduces a fall deceleration distance that is exceptionally smooth, controlled, and low in force. The unit will function impeccably in a panic grab scenario.
