Originally developed by Reed Thorne of Arizona-based Ropes That Rescue, the AZTEK (Arizona Technician’s Edge Kit) is used globally and offers more than 100 rigging solutions in a bag. As one of the most versatile tools used in rope rescue, the system reflects the philosophy of keeping rigging equipment simple, efficient, non-specialized, light and small.
The design of the CMC AZTEK ProSeries® LT System (Load Tender) leaves no detail ignored. The more compact ‘LT’ version of the AZTEK offers 28 feet of 8 mm AZTEK ProSeries® Cord that can extend the set-of-fours up to 6 feet, providing a 4:1 or 5:1 mechanical advantage. The LT system includes (2) ProTech™ Aluminum Auto-Lock Carabiners w/ removable keeper pin for attaching to the swivel ends. (Note: Included carabiners must be installed by the user and are UL Classified to NFPA Technical Use).
USES: Whether using the set-of-fours (SOFs) as a quick 4:1 or 5:1 M/A for a multitude of rigging applications, or for pick-off rescues, the versatile AZTEK ProSeries LT System gives rescuers and rope access technicians endless rigging solutions in a bag, including:
