Turbochest – Next-Generation Chest Ascender with Rollers
The Turbochest redefines efficiency and rope handling in vertical movement. Unlike traditional ascenders, it features dual integrated rollers that deliver an incredibly smooth interface with the rope—dramatically improving climbing efficiency and minimizing friction-related wear on the device.
These innovative rollers keep the rope perfectly aligned with the device, reducing abrasion where ropes usually rub against the ascender body. The precisely contoured rope channel and secure closure system ensure the rope remains properly seated, even during aggressive pendulums and traverses.
Whether you’re moving fast on fixed lines or navigating complex rope systems, the Turbochest sets a new standard in ascender performance and durability.
Key Features:
Dual Rollers: Enhance upward glide and reduce device wear.
Self-Cleaning Design: Openings in both the cam and body help shed dirt, mud, and grit.
Reinforced Build: Thicker body plates and optimized connection points minimize shifting and wear—especially with steel carabiners.
Secure & Easy Operation: Simple opening mechanism with lock-open functionality for quick attachment; includes a removable pull cord for easier use with gloves.
Versatile Utility: Can be configured as a locking pulley for light hauling tasks (max load: 50 kg / 110 lbs).
Conforms to EN 12841/B: For semi-static ropes (10.5–12.2 mm) & EN 567: For semi-static and dynamic ropes (8–13 mm)
