Mechanical Prusik for Tree Care

For arborists and tree climbers, the ZIGZAG mechanical Prusik is designed to help you move in the canopy. It functions using the same technique as a classic Prusik pulley system, providing intuitive handling that quickly feels familiar. The friction chain provides smooth and precise movement between branches. The ZIGZAG is versatile and can be used in a moving rope system or a stationary rope system with the addition of a braking accessory. Built for demanding conditions in the canopy, it’s designed to help limit wear.

Full Details

    • Intuitive handling and efficient movement in the canopy:
      – Functions using the same technique as a classic Prusik pulley system, so it quickly feels familiar
      – Release lever allows for smooth and precise rope feed when moving along the rope
      – Wide pulley mounted on sealed ball bearings makes it easy to take up slack
      – Speed of movement can be controlled by adjusting the pressure on the lever
      – Device blocks on the rope when the friction chain extends
      – Fixed lower attachment point allows for system alignment and left- or right-handed use
    • Versatile:
      – Can be used in a moving rope system, as well as a stationary rope system when paired with the CHICANE accessory, which offers additional friction on the descent
      – Upper attachment point has an integrated positioning ring for connecting the rope end in a moving rope system or a CHICANE in a stationary rope system
      – Auxiliary attachment point for adding a ZILLON lanyard or connecting a second system
    • Durable:
      – Steel construction for improved durability
      – Separated and curved side plates for better wear resistance
