What’s Included in the Basic Rope Access Starter Kit?

1. Helmet

A certified safety helmet is essential for head protection when working at height. It helps protect against falling debris, impacts, and head injuries during rope access operations. Our helmets are lightweight, well-ventilated, and designed for long-term comfort.

2. Harness

The full-body rope access harness is the foundation of your safety system. It distributes weight evenly, providing comfort and security while suspended. It also has attachment points for connecting to ropes and safety systems.

3. Descender

The descender is used to control your descent on a rope. This device allows smooth and controlled movement downward, providing friction and braking to prevent uncontrolled falls.

4. Ascender

An ascender is a mechanical device that allows you to move up the rope efficiently. It grips the rope when weight is applied, enabling easy climbing with minimal effort.

5. Footloop (Foot Ascender)

The footloop works alongside the ascender, allowing you to step up and climb more efficiently. It reduces fatigue and provides additional support when ascending a rope.

6. Sling

A sling is a versatile piece of equipment used for anchor points, secondary attachments, and load distribution. It is an essential component for securing yourself and your gear while working at height.

7. ASAP Lock

The ASAP Lock (Arrest System for Access Personnel) is an advanced fall-arrest device that follows your movement on the rope. If a sudden fall or acceleration occurs, it locks instantly to prevent injury.

8. ASAP’Sorber

The ASAP’Sorber works alongside the ASAP Lock, absorbing shock loads in the event of a fall. This helps reduce strain on your body and the rope, improving overall safety.

9. Triact Karabiner

A Triact karabiner is a self-locking carabiner with a triple-action mechanism, providing extra security against accidental opening. These are commonly used for connecting harnesses, ropes, and devices.

10. DUCK (Rope Clamp)

The DUCK is a compact rope clamp and positioning device, used for creating adjustable anchors or as a backup safety device. It works well with various rope diameters and webbing.

11. Screwgate Karabiners

Screwgate karabiners provide secure connections between components of your rope access system. Their locking mechanism ensures they stay closed under load, preventing accidental disengagement.

12. Maillon (Steel Connector)

A Maillon is a high-strength steel connector commonly used in critical connections and load-bearing applications. Unlike standard carabiners, Maillons are screw-locked for extra reliability.

13. Cow’s Tails

Cow’s Tails are adjustable lanyards used for work positioning and safety backups. They provide flexibility while ensuring that you remain safely connected to anchor points.

14. Seat

A rope access seat offers extra comfort for extended periods of suspension. It reduces pressure on the legs and harness, making prolonged work at height more bearable.
