Description
Edelrid Ohm II
A clever and simple solution to the problems experienced by a light climbing partner belaying someone significantly heavier. For use at both climbing walls and outdoor sport climbing venues.The new OHM is easier to use than ever thanks to a number of updates. The device itself is now fitted with a swivel joint, meaning that the clipping direction no longer matters when the device is clipped to the first bolt. The locking system has also been improved, the device now features a button as opposed to the catch seen on the previous generation.
Specifications
- Minimum belayer weight: 40 kg
- For single ropes between 8.9–11.0 mm
