A Super Tough, Heat Resistant and Versatile Prusik

The VT Prusik has been designed to be used on smaller diameter ropes and as it is an open-end Prusik, you’ll find that it can be used for ascending, rappelling, as a traveling rope grab or in conjunction with a Prusik minding pulley in haul systems.

The VT Prusik is made with a Technora aramid sheath over nylon core strands. This combination not only stops the Prusik from flattening and binding up, but also means that this is a tough, durable and heat resistant product.

Further features of the Bluewater VT Prusik include:-

  • It’s strong with an end to end strength of 11.3kN
  • Each end is bar tacked with a custom Technora thread/stitch combination that yields a superior strength and overall durability
  • Can used oh so many ways. Starting of course with the Valdotain Tresse but also for a Symmetric Prusik Asymmetric Prusik or French Prusik
  • Useful for hauling systems, as a rappel self belay ‘auto block’ or countless other applications
  • Lightweight and low profile
  • Equally applicable in climbing, canyoning, rescue or rope access/rigging and tree climbing situations
  • Made in the USA.

 

The performance of any Prusik will vary based on rope size, type and condition. Test and practice with your VT Prusik in conjunction with your rope and other equipment in a safe manner to determine the compatibility and performance characteristics before applying in the vertical realm.
