The Rock Exotica Omni Block 1.1' Swivel Pulley is the smallest in the Omni Block family. It's perfect for situations where weight and size matter a lot, like crevasse rescue kits, cave rescue, kayaking, alpine climbing, and backcountry adventures. Hunters can also use it to hang game for butchering. This pulley combines a swivel and a pulley in a patented design. Introduced in 2005, it revolutionized pulley use. It can replace a regular pulley, carabiner, and swivel, saving vertical space and being lighter and more affordable. You can easily install or remove the rope while the pulley stays attached to the anchor. The standard version suits most users, and there are also specialized options. With a weight of 5.1 oz (145 gm), a height of 4.4” (112 mm), a width of 2” (51 mm), a breaking strength of 23kN, a working load of 5kN, a max rope diameter of 13 mm, and a sheave diameter of 1.1” (28 mm), it's CE - certified.
Using this pulley is easy. First, attach it to your anchor. You can then install the rope even when the pulley is already on the anchor. It's great for lifting and rotating, whether you're in a rescue situation or hunting. When using, make sure the working load doesn't exceed 5kN to keep it safe. Avoid over - stressing it beyond its breaking strength of 23kN. For maintenance, regularly check for any signs of wear and tear. Clean it gently with a mild soap and water if it gets dirty. Store it in a dry place to prevent rust and damage. If you notice any significant damage, stop using it and replace it immediately.
