RG500 Auto Manual Rope Grab 12mm w/o Extension

Product Overview

The RG500 is a European-certified auto/manual rope grab that slides smoothly on 12mm vertical rope and locks permanently and immediately if a fall occurs — a genuine workhorse connecting device for rope-based vertical access and fall arrest.

What We Like About This Rope Grab

Being certified as both a fall-arrest rope grab (EN 353-2:2002) and a rope adjustment device (EN 12841/A:2006), while also usable as an anchorage device to 18kN (EN 795/B:2012), makes this a genuinely versatile single piece of hardware rather than a single-purpose component.
