Description
The Rocker is designed primarily as a safety back-up in two-rope systems (industrial rope access, technical rescue, etc), as a fall arrest device in the event of main line failure.
It is suitable for use as a back-up in a 2-person rescue scenario, as it is rated to 200kg.
To be used as a EN12814-A (safety line adjustment device) back-up, the Rocker must be connected to the upper (sternal/chest) connection point on the user’s harness. We recommend it is used with our 10cm Rocker Sling Assembly (see page 23).
The Rocker may also be used as part of a flexible line fall arrest set-up on a ladder/tower, as a pulley brake for hauling, or in many other situations.
We strongly recommend that technicians are trained in the use of the Rocker.
