SMC APEX Swivel Pulley 1.5″

$105.00

The Apex Swivel Pulley offers both easy one-handed operation and unmatched security. The Apex is a mid-line attachable pulley that secures the rope using a low-profile, patented, triple-action lock mechanism that can easily be opened with one hand. This lock is operated by three distinct actions: pivot the lock button, depress it, then swing open the side plate. Simply closing the sideplate re-engages the lock mechanism and solidly secures the rope. The operation is intuitive and ergonomic. The Apex features symmetrical sideplates which are optimized for integration with prusik-based progress capture systems. This streamlines system set-up and minimizes the possibility of mis-rigging. The beautifully forged swivel eye was designed to accommodate up to three carabiners so you can use the Apex in virtually any rigging scenario. It is also soft-goods-compatible for situations where you want to eliminate the carabiner altogether. The swivel eye’s versatility allows it to excel in a wide range of rigging configurations. The U.S. made Apex Pulley line represents the new standard for rescue, rope access, or arborism.

Description

SMC combined 54 years of design and manufacturing knowledge with an uncompromising program of innovation, prototyping and user feedback to create our new Apex Swivel Pulley. The result is a pulley with unmatched security and deceptively simple ease of use.
A patented, low-profile, triple-action lock prevents accidental openings, but the intuitive and ergonomic design can be opened with one hand. The robust lock is operated by three distinct actions: pivot the lock, depress the lock, and swing the side-plate. Simply closing the side-plate re-engages the lock and secures the rope.
The symmetrical side-plates are optimized for use with prusik-based progress capture systems and minimize the possibility of mis-rigging.
When unlocked, the side-plates swing away to streamline setup and offer maximum versatility when placing the pulley anywhere in your system.
The cold-forged, custom designed swivel eye accommodates up to three carabiners and the rounded profile offers excellent soft goods compatibility when you want to eliminate the carabiner altogether.
The APEX is best-in-class when you need a robust, versatile, and American-made pulley that is perfect for use in rescue, rope access, or arborism.
