BRAND NEW - Tactical Rappel Package
Rope, Harness, Locking Carabiner and Rescue 8
CMI Rescue 8 Rappel Device - MSRP $36.95
More than anything else CMI has ever made, they are best known for their legendary Figure 8 rappel devices. CMI burst onto the descender scene in 1974 with the introduction of the first forged aluminum hardcoated 8. Now, nearly a million eights later, their lightweight, versatile designs, backed by their flawless track record, continue to win new followers.
CMI eights are hot forged out of aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. Why aluminum, when many others use steel? Aluminum keeps rescue 8's light and produces excellent friction while maintaining the safety margins demanded by todayÂ’s tough standards. CMI's exclusive hardcoat guarantees an exceptionally long life and produces smooth, even friction.
The Rescue 8 is built big enough to handle the largest rescue ropes (two of them). Extended ears on the upper ring make tying off a snap and prevents the rope from sliding up and locking off (inadvertant girth hitch). Dual holes on the tie-in end allow the eight to remain attached to the harness while threading the rope, preventing loss of the device in extreme conditions.
The industry standard for rescue grade descenders.
Omega Pacific Locking D Carabiner - Tactical Black - MSRP $10.75
Features locking gate to help prevent unintentional opening. Carabiner is coated with a non-reflective anodized finish - ideal for military or tactical applications. Omega Pacific, the world's leading producer of carabiners, has blended form and function with superior manufacturing processes to provide leading edge performance. Omega has developed a proprietary ISO Cold Forged manufacturing process which produces a lightweight, low profile, state of the art carabiner with the same good looks and strength of hot forged carabiners, but at an amazingly affordable price. Special attention is paid to rivet finishing, gate actions, spring tensions and overall finish quality.
* Gate Opening: 16mm / .630 in.
* Major Axis Strength: 31 kN
* Weight: 74 grams / 2.6 oz.
* Length: 108.7 mm / 4.28 in.
Liberty Mountain Universal Harness - Black - MSRP $31.95
Price, comfort, and versatility make this harness ideal for tactical, light rescue or recreational use. These harnesses are subject to stringent quality control standards. Fully adjustable waist and legs. One size fits all up to 44 inch waist.
Sterling 7/16" x 100' Tactical Black Rappelling Rope - MSRP $79.95
A multipurpose rescue/rappel rope. Great for police and security tactical teams, military operations or training.
Typical static ropes are made on 16 - or 32 - carrier machines with less twist in the cover yarns. These ropes have a much coarser, bumpier hand, which exposes much of the yarn to abrasion causing early rope retirement. Sterling's unique sheath produces a rope with a more supple hand, making it easier to deploy during rescue operations.
The smoother sheath finish reduces vibration allowing for more control during lowering and extrication procedures. And, with the 48-carrier sheath, less yarn is exposed to abrasion, giving you a longer lasting rope. In addition, with less bulk in the sheath, we can add more yarns to the core giving you a stronger rope.
The other most significant difference between Sterling's SuperStatic and all others is DryCoreTM. Rescue technicians never know where and under what conditions (wind, rain, snow) the next rescue will occur, but with DryCore, their ropes will stay dry, supple and strong. Certified to current CE and NFPA life safety standards by SGS Yarsley International 0120.
