VSG Climb Right 15218T Clencher Rope Grab

The Climb Right Clencher Rope Grab is a cam-actuated device that functions as a mechanical alternative to a Prusik hitch for creating an adjustable lanyard. The Clencher slides easily up the rope when the cam is prevented from engaging, but jams securely when the cam is loaded, replicating the functional behavior of a Prusik with the consistency and speed of a mechanical grab. Installation is done by threading one end of the rope through the grab, rather than clipping over an already-rigged rope. This thread-through design substantially reduces the risk of accidental disconnection compared to clip-over designs. The Clencher uses an internal spring encased in the cam for tension, an improvement over the external stiff wire used in earlier designs, which was more exposed to damage and debris interference in field conditions. Compatible with 1/2-inch to 5/8-inch rope. Made in the USA. Note: If overloaded or subjected to an impact force, the rope may slip through the device. Not intended for belaying.
