One of the most popular full-sized descenders used by professionals throughout the rescue, fire service, and police/tactical markets. Machined from 1/2 inch thick, solid aluminum, heat-treated bar then finished with a very tough, hard black anodized finish. 

The carabiner hole functions effectively as a sticht plate for 1/2 inch rope, although this configuration does not provide sufficient friction when used with smaller diameter rope.

The ''ears'' help to eliminate the potential for the rope to slip up into a girth hitch, they also make it easier to ''tie off'' when on rappel. 

The oval carabiner hole doubles as a belay plate for up to 1/2'' rope. 

Machined from 1/2'' thick, solid aluminum, heat-treated bar and then finished with a very tough, hard-anodized finish for extra durability.
