- Assisted-braking resistor to increase rope friction when there is a large weight difference between belayer and lead climber. In the event of a fall, the OHM increases the amount of rope friction so that a lighter belayer can hold a heavier lead climber without difficulty.
- Belayer requires significantly less hand braking force to arrest a fall Lowering a heavier climber is much easier to control OHM is attached at the first bolt in the safety chain
- Should a lead climber fall at the first bolt, the OHM significantly reduces the risk of a possible ground fall Rope handling when belaying a lead climber not affected (no additional friction when paying out rope) Recommended weight difference (lead climber > belayer): 10 - 40 kg
- Minimum weight belayer: 40 kg For single ropes from 8.9 - 11 mm
- CE marking: CE 0123, Weight 470 g
THE OHM EQUALIZES THE WEIGHT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CLIMBER & BELAYER
If there is a significant difference in weight between lead climber and belayer this frequently causes problems. This applies in particular to climbing couples, where the woman is often significantly lighter than her partner.
“For me, this provides the solution to weight problems in the rope team.” Angy Eiter (world’s first female 9b climber)
OHM
Assisted-braking resistor to increase rope friction when there is a large weight difference between belayer and lead climber. In the event of a fall, the OHM increases the amount of rope friction so that a lighter belayer can hold a heavier lead climber without difficulty.
- Far less holding force has to be applied in the event of a fall
- Lowering a heavier climber is much easier to control
- OHM is attached to the first anchor point in the safety chain
- In the event of a fall at the first anchor point, the OHM significantly reduces the risk of a possible ground fall
- Rope handling when belaying a lead climber is not affected (no additional friction when paying out rope)
- Recommended weight difference (lead climber > belayer): 10 - 40 kg
- Minimum weight belayer: 40 kg
- For single ropes with diameters of 8.4 - 11 mm
Fast & simple handling
No additional friction
Saves your "belationship"
Weight difference 10-40 kg
