Ropeman 1, 2, 3 on ropes
© Wild Country, Feb 2012

New Ropeman 1 - Smoother in the hand, the revamped Ropeman 1 now comes with hot forged sideplates that help to optimize the fit and function across a broader range of karabiners.

- Set available with Synergy Keylock karabiner £42.95
- In stores Feb/Mar 2012
Ropeman 2
New Ropeman 2 - Now reworked with forged sideplates the Ropeman 2 is neater in the hand, a touch lighter and with better internal radii it has a smoother function across a broader range of karabiners. The Ropeman Mk2 was the successor to the Mk1 and was designed with stainless steel cam that allows use on ropes down to 8mm. The stainless cam allows a more complex (and more aggressive looking) but ultimately more rope friendly design, which gives bite on thinner cords that the Ropeman 1 doesn't have.
- New Ropeman 2 £39.95
- Stainless cam 174ph
- 3 Sigma rated
- Rope diameter 8mm-13mm
- Two new colours for easy identity
- CE EN567, UIAA 126
- Weight 92g
- Set available with Synergy Keylock karabiner £47.95
- In stores Feb/Mar 2012
Ropeman 3
New Ropeman 3 - An all new design, the Ropeman 3 extends the original concept to make this the first Ropeman that can be used both nylon slings and ropes.
"...Now along comes the version 3. Is it a significant step forward? I would say most definitively yes!..." Steve Long, Jan 2012.
A new shape of cam and new forged side plates result in a device which is easy to place and more adaptable - as well as all the common Ropeman uses.
- New Ropeman 3 £44.95
- Alloy cam 7075 T6
- 3 Sigma rated
- Rope diameter 9mm-11mm
- Two colours for easy identity
- CE EN567, UIAA 126
- Weight 71g
- Set available with Synergy Lite Keylock karabiner £52.95.
In stores now.
