Product Description
The Petzl ASAP® LOCK is an outstanding mobile fall arrester with a top - notch locking function. It's a game - changer during rope ascents. Under normal circumstances, it smoothly glides along the rope without any need for your manual adjustment, following your every move effortlessly. But when there's a shock or sudden movement, it quickly locks onto the rope to halt your fall. The built - in locking function lets you keep the device in place, cutting down the possible fall distance. And its connection arm makes the system super resistant to drops when passing intermediate anchors. Pair it with an ASAP'SORBER or ASAP'SORBER AXESS energy absorber to work away from the rope. Key features include constant fall protection, working on vertical or angled ropes, and locking even if grabbed during a fall. The locking function also stops the rope from being blown up in strong winds. It's easy to use, moving up and down the rope without manual fumbling, and can be installed or removed anywhere on the rope. The ASAP'SORBER AXESS can handle loads up to 250 kg in two - person rescue scenarios. Made of aluminum, stainless steel, and nylon, it weighs 425 g. It has multiple certifications like CE EN 12841 type A, CE EN 353 - 2, EAC, and ANSI Z359.15 when used with specific equipment. The SKU is B071BA00, with a 3 - year guarantee and comes in a packing of 1.
Using the Petzl ASAP® LOCK mobile fall arrester is straightforward. First, make sure to pair it with an ASAP'SORBER or ASAP'SORBER AXESS energy absorber as required. When you start moving along the rope, the device will move freely up or down without you having to do anything extra. In case of a shock or sudden movement, it will automatically lock on the rope to stop your fall. To use the locking function, just activate it when you want to fix the device's position and reduce the fall distance. Remember, this function can also prevent the rope from being blown upward in strong winds. When passing intermediate anchors, the connection arm helps protect the system from drops. Installation and removal of the device can be done at any point on the rope. Be aware that different certifications apply depending on the equipment you use with it. Always use it with the recommended ropes and carabiners. For maintenance, regularly check the device for any signs of wear or damage, especially the aluminum, stainless steel, and nylon parts. Keep it clean and dry to ensure its long - term performance. And don't forget, it comes with a 3 - year guarantee.
