Edge Protection
Figure 8 & 9s
Rescue Figure 8 devices have extended side bars to keep the rope
in place, preventing the rope from creeping inwards and causing
unwanted locking.
The figure 9 device performs in a similar way to the rescue 8, but
has the extra benefit of the attachment point being perpendicular to
the body. The attachment hole has been twisted through 90 degrees
(compared with the standard Figure 8 Device), thus eliminating
unwanted twisting between the device and harness connection.
Micro 8
Edge Protection
The RP120 Micro 8 was designed specifically to be lightweight & compact, even including
a length of rope. It is designed to work on Sterling 6mm TRC rope. The double bar design
of the Micro 8 means that the friction can be varied according to the demands of the user.
The Micro 8 is individually CNC machined for strength, with well radiussed edges to
reduce rope wear. At 56g (2oz) the RP120 is the lightest Figure 8 in the world.
The ISC Edge Roller is ideal for protecting ropes from wear. Each Edge Roller box has base rollers and side rollers, to protect
the rope from edge wear and lateral movement.
Edge Roller boxes are sold separately and boxes can be added or removed to suit the terrain of each application.

The A-B Descender is a ‘squeeze style’ device, designed for the
use in Technical Rope Access, Intervention/Special Forces and is
rated for two-person rescue loads.
The A-B Descender is fitted with an extended, spring loaded flip
down handle which gives extra leverage when a fine degree of
descent control is required. The flip down handle is of particular
use for extra control of a two-person rescue.
The RAD ‘Rope Adjustment Device’ is a multifunctional device
which can be used as part of a work-positioning lanyard (for
10.5 - 12.7mm rope). The RAD can also be used for ascent,
descent, work positioning/restraint, belay and progress capture.
The ‘squeeze style’ device makes smooth adjustment easy, while
the spring-loaded flip down handle allows easy use, especially
in descent mode.
The RAD can be supplied as an individual device* which can be
fitted with rope and a choice of connectors.
