Climbing Technology Cric

Introducing the Climbing Technology Cric. It is highly versatilile, of compact size and easy of use. As a result, the time, material and space needed in rope manoeuvres are all significantly reduced.

A prime feature of the Cric is that it allows you to ascend the rope in accordance with EN 567 / EN 12841-B standards (ascender mode). Additionally, it can be used as a simple pulley for lifting or transferring a load in accordance with the EN 12278 standard (pulley mode).

Furthermore, the integrated ball-bearing sheave can be used as a simple redirect. This makes it easier to ascend a rope or to lift a person without the aid of additional connectors (rope clamp/pulley mode).

Specifications

• The Cric allows the direct lifting of a load, the creation of hauling systems and the rescue of a person. In the case of a victim fallen into a crevasse, the progress-capture hauling pulley mode proves optimal in a resue.
• Likewise, when used in pulley mode, the rope is free to run in both directions. Instead, when the hauling-pulley mode is used, the rope can only run in one direction. Correspondingly, it is locked in the opposite one.
• When used in progress-capture hauling pulley mode, it is possible to lower a lifted load by acting on the dedicated cord connected to the cam within the device.
• Thanks to the Cric’s intuitive release button; installation of the device on rope is super swift and easy. No matter the mode it is used in. This remains true even with gloves on or while operating in difficult conditions.
• Finally, the Cric is equipped with a steel cam featuring teeth that minimize rope wear. Yet, these teeth are equally as effective in blocking the rope. In addition, the cam is designed with two slots to reduce the build-up of dirt, so maintaining the lock on the rope very efficient in any condition (muddy, frozen rope, etc.).
