Pulleys with built-in progress capture, ideal for resuce, rigging, and mechanical advantage.
Double pulley with integrated cam that provides immediate progress capture without the need of prusik loops. Stainless pins retain the rope when a rigged system is packed so that system can be pulled out and used immediately. Manufactured from high quality aluminum and anodized to help prevent corrosion. Ideal for all rescue applications where a small mechanical advantage system is being utilized. Up to 1/2” capacity. 34kN / 7,650lb breaking strength (18 kN / 4,050 lb for the becket).

“This SMC Advanced Pulley is amazing. I work for a tree company and we use the old mechanical advantage (5:1) and the prusik is always binding up when we go to set the line out. I just bought SMC Advance Tech HX Pulley for my personal business and its more efficient - less time resetting the line which saves me time while working! ”
The perfect “mate” for the SMC Advance Tech pulley in mechanical advantage systems. This compact pulley features integrated stainless steel pins to retain the rope when a rigged mechanical advantage system is stored, so that you can immediately deploy and use the system. The Advance Tech mate is made from anodized aluminum with a ball bearing axle and 1.5” aluminum sheave. SMC has machined this pulley to be a perfect component in your mechanical advantage system, with sealed ball bearings, sleek and low-profile design. Works with ropes up to 1/2” (12.5mm).

The wait is over - the Maestro has arrived! This descender with integrated progress-caputre pulley is sure to be a game-changer for rope rescue.
MAESTRO is a descender designed for technical rescue operations. It facilitates manipulation of heavy loads, forlowering or hauling, and may be used in both the primary system or in a back-up belay. This versatility allows rescuers toadapt to any situation they may encounter on the rescue scene. The ergonomic handle and integrated brake allow for comfortably controlled descent. Shifting from lowering position to hauling position is immediate, without the need to transfer the load. The integrated progress-capture pulley has a large diameter sheave mounted on sealed ball bearings,ensuring excellent hauling efficiency. The AUTO-LOCK system automatically locks the rope when the handle is not in use. Once locked, the rope can be taken up without having to manipulate the handle.

High efficiency, ultra-light progress capture pulley designed for rescue. Weighs 53g, max rope 11mm, 15 kN MBS, 91% efficiency.
The smallest in the Traxion line of progress-capture pulleys, the Micro Traxion is a super-compact and highly efficient (91%) pulley with great applications in tree climbing. As with the other Traxion series pulleys, the Micro Traxion can be used to create a haul system, but the most exciting use for tree climbers is using the Micro Traxion as a backup above an ascent device like the Petzl Zig Zag during SRT ascent. The Micro Traxion can also be used as a compact emergency ascender.
Max Rope Size: 7/16” (11mm) WLL: 1,125 lb (5 KN) Break Strength: 3,375 lb (15 kN) Weight: 3 oz (85g)

“Need to leave a tree threaded with cord to facilitate repeated access? This pulley will greatly reduce the friction when pulling up a rope, but many pulleys will safely accomplish that! The Petzl Rescue is special because the space between its wheel and side plates is too narrow to accept most cord. That is, your tagline won't jam in the pulley, so you can keep enjoying that hard-earned access.”
For effective and comfortable hauling of heavy loads with built-in progress capture features. These pulleys are really 3 devices in 1: pulley, self-jamming pulley, and rope clamp/grab. Can be used to haul a load, raise a person, set up a hauling system or self belay. Also work well for Tyrolean traverses and ascending, and are an indispensable device for any rescue kit. The Pro Traxion has safe working load of 6kN(1,350 lb.) as a pulley and 4kN(900 lb.) as a self-jamming pulley. Lower becket , large diameter sheave mounted on sealed ball bearings, chrome plated steel cam, swinging side plates, 1/2” capacity.
Camp's Turbolock progress capture pulley is compact & tough, with easy one-handed operation.
You can load the rope into the Turbolock without removing it from the anchor. The locking mechanism prevents accidental openings during use. A tooth cam engages immediately and grabs ropes from 8 to 13mm in diameter.
A switch controls enabling or disabling the cam, and flanges protect it against accidental activation. One movement opens the cam for easier manipulation of the rope, and lets the Turbolock act as a simple pulley. Two movements enable the cam's locking function.
Main attachment point and becket hole allow carabiners to rotate for ease of use.
