EDELRID Ballast Resistor Ohm II

The 2nd generation of our innovative and successful OHM comes with some updates for easier usability. The ballast resistance to increase the braking effect of rope shafts with a large weight difference has a swivel joint that gives the device more freedom of movement. When hanging the device on the first hook, the hanging direction does not matter anymore. The locking system prevents accidental opening and greatly simplifies the insertion of the rope and dismantling the device when draining. Features Installs in the first hook of the safety chain No restriction of handling in the lead rise (no rope friction when spending ropes). For single ropes from 8.9 - 11.0 mm diameter. Significantly lower forces act on the securing person. Draining a heavier person is much easier to control. In the event of a fall into the first hook, the device reduces the risk of a collision 'Makes the securing person 25 kg heavier'. Minimum weight securing person: 40 kg.

• Assisted-braking device for partners with large weight differences
• Smooth rope handling while belaying lead climbers
• Swivel joint allows unrestricted movement and easy clipping
• Locks securely to prevent accidental opening
• Attaches at first bolt to reduce risk of ground fall
