Slyde Touwversteller
Vermindert Schokimpact
De Slyde Touwversteller is een slim hulpmiddel om een verstelbare leeflijn mee te maken, en dat is ontworpen om impactkrachten te minimaliseren volgens hetzelfde principe als traditionele knopen. Gemaakt om soepel samen te werken met touwen van 9 mm tot 10 mm in diameter, is deze versteller veelzijdig en stelt hij je in staat een gepersonaliseerd systeem te bouwen op basis van jouw situatie.
Belangrijkste kenmerken:
- Aanpasbare Setup: Stel je systeem samen door het meest geschikte verbindingstype te kiezen, rekening houdend met krachten, gewichten en omgevingsfactoren zoals stof, sneeuw of vocht.
- Op Maat Gemaakt: De Slyde Touwversteller stelt je in staat de setup fijn af te stemmen op jouw specifieke behoeften, terwijl ervoor wordt gezorgd dat het vrije uiteinde van het touw nooit wegglijdt.
- Vermindering van Impactkrachten: Het slimme ontwerp van de Slyde Touwversteller vermindert schokimpact door effectief de energie te absorberen via de lengte van het touw.
Hoewel de Slyde Touwversteller niet is geclassificeerd als PBM (Persoonlijke Beschermingsmiddelen) en niet is getest volgens EN958, is hij ontworpen om de veiligheid te verbeteren wanneer correct geconfigureerd. Zorg ervoor dat het vrije uiteinde van het touw stevig is gepositioneerd en voldoende speling laat om eventuele verwachte schokken te absorberen.

Share Your Experience
During a recent canyoning trip, I used the Slyde Rope Adjuster to navigate some challenging descents. Its ability to reduce shock impact was immediately noticeable, especially when moving through wet and slippery conditions.
