Singing Tree Rope Wrench
The Rope Wrench ZK-2 friction device makes working the tree"Single Rope" more easily. The Rope Wrench ZK-2 is not for use as a mechanical prusik, it places a slight bend in your climbing line and takes just enough pressure off the hitch, allowing climbing on your friction hitch SRT with greater ease. The bottom friction pin features a roller sheave for a smoother ascent and descent. The upper friction pin includes a larger diameter pin. This provides consistent friction and is more rope friendly. The stiff tether forces the Rope Wrench to quickly engage or disengage. The Rope Wrench ZK-2 optimizes your climbing experience. The Singing Tree Rope Wrench makes the switch from double to single rope easy and cost effective.
