The Goblin fall arrester represents a monumental step forward in safety for workers who rely on fall arrest systems for work at heights. To be used on semi-static ropes ranging from 10-11 mm. The innovative cam creates perfectly smooth action on the rope whether it is being used to ascend or descend the line. Performance can be further increased by using the Rope Surfer device.
Impact on the rope is reduced to the minimum thanks to the specially designed locking mechanism that lowers the fall arrest force by half compared to other devices and locks the rope along a long axis, rather than pinching it aggressively with a toothed cam. Switching to ascension mode is accomplished with the simple push of a button on the back of the device. Hot forged stainless steel cam and locking components combine with a robust aluminum alloy body for exceptional durability over time.
Standards: EN 12841A/B (rope access, workers up to 120 kg; rescue up to 200 kg); EN 353-2 (fall arrester up to 150 kg with certified ropes); PPE-R/11.075 (horizontal/inclined edge use with Iridium 10.5/11 mm ropes); ANSI Z359.1 (fall arrester up to 136 kg / 300 lbs, certified with Lithium 11 mm rope).
