Unlike MRS (moving rope system), the rope does not move through the anchor — the climber ascends and descends on a fixed line, which allows for faster movement and more efficient redirects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Rope Wrench create friction?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy bending the rope through the pulley and around the SLIC pin, the Rope Wrench creates the necessary friction needed to reduce the load on your hitch. This allows the hitch to release and reset smoothly, mimicking the feel of a traditional climbing system on a stationary rope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan an SRS system be lowered from the ground?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndeed, one of the primary advantages of a stationary rope system is the capability to configure a lower able rescue-ready base anchor. To enhance emergency preparedness, a secondary SRS system equipped with a Rope Wrench can be attached to the base anchor and utilized to lower an injured climber.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ISC","offers":[{"title":"Rope Wrench without Tether \/ Black","offer_id":33055569510434,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCH-BLK","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench without Tether \/ Gold","offer_id":33055573278754,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCH-GLD","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench without Tether \/ Gray","offer_id":33055582421026,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCH-GRY","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench without Tether \/ Orange","offer_id":33055588843554,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCH-ORG","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench without Tether \/ Purple","offer_id":33055585992738,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCH-PRP","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench without Tether \/ Red","offer_id":31547251949652,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCH","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench with Tether \/ Black","offer_id":33055571509282,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCHTET-BLK","price":158.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench with Tether \/ Gold","offer_id":33055575212066,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCHTET-GLD","price":158.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench with Tether \/ Gray","offer_id":33055583174690,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCHTET-GRY","price":158.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench with Tether \/ Orange","offer_id":33055590383650,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCHTET-ORG","price":158.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench with Tether \/ Purple","offer_id":33055587139618,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCHTET-PRP","price":158.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rope Wrench with Tether \/ Red","offer_id":31547251982420,"sku":"ASC-STWRENCHTET","price":164.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tether only \/ NA","offer_id":31547252015188,"sku":"ASC-STTETHER","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0276\/2057\/3268\/products\/RWALLCOLORS.png?v=1615477676","url":"https:\/\/bartlet-tman.shop\/products\/isc-rp280-rope-wrench-zk-2","provider":"Bartlet-tman","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
