Rock Exotica Mini Eight

The Rock Exotica Mini Eight is a top - notch climbing accessory. Its side ears are a great feature, allowing you to effortlessly adjust friction. It can handle a wide variety of rope sizes, from 6mm to 13mm, and is incredibly easy to tie off. The biner hole comes with a rubber gasket that fits snugly on your carabiner. Crafted from 7075 aluminum, it's harder and more durable than the cheaper alloys used in other figure - 8 devices. It has a wide friction range for different ropes, a rubber insert for a tight carabiner fit, and weighs only 60 gm (2.1 oz). It measures 3.64” (92 mm) in height and 3.21” (82 mm) in width. The maximum rope diameter for single ropes is 13 mm and 10.5 mm for double ropes, with a breaking strength of 14 kN.

Using the Rock Exotica Mini Eight is easy. First, select the appropriate rope within the specified size range (6 - 13mm). Pass the rope through the device as needed and use the side ears to adjust the friction according to your climbing needs. Make sure the rubber insert in the biner hole fits tightly on your carabiner before use. When it comes to safety, always check the breaking strength and don't exceed the maximum rope diameter limits. For maintenance, keep it clean and dry after each use. You can use a mild soap and water to clean it, but avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the 7075 aluminum. Store it in a cool, dry place to ensure its long - term durability.
