| | | Got two of these as well while I was back in Iowa. They only weigh 4oz each, work with up to 1/2" rope. The total weigh for both of them and two biners to carry them on is right around a pound. Allow for a very lightweight-carry and very fast-set-up haul system up to 4:1 Easily enough to pull a person up using mechanical advantage. Double-swing-sides. CMI Double Sheave Micro Pulley with Becket 1/2" Specs Meets ANSI Requirements : Yes Width : 1.75" (45mm) Height : 3.5" (70mm) Weight : 4 oz (113 grams) Color : Gold & Green WLL : 700 lb (317 kilos) Tensile Strength : 7,000 lb (3,175 kilos) Metal : Aluminum Sheave Diameter : 1.25" (32mm) Rope Capacity : 1/2" (13mm) $40 each

Abby, with they double hyberbar across the top, or with them both on one side? With the double across the top you can add more friction on double ropes, or cleat-off. The double on just one side lets you add quite a bit more friction on single-rope, or cleat off. You can also use the double top hyperbar for added friction on single rope. When I was doing all the rigging for load-lowering in those turbines in Iowa I used my rack for all of it. 1,000lb to 2500lb loads. If I wanted more friction I'd wrap a bight from the brake-hand side around one or both of the hyper bars. Also used it for cleating, then tied a mule knot off up above to secure it for overnight-hanging.
| Therrin, good question for clarification. Mine is the BMS Micro Rack Long Frame with Dual Hyper Bars. Mine would be the one on the far left. Because it's their "Micro", it really is designed for single rope use. In a rescue situation or with dual ropes, a 6-bar standard width rack with dual top hyperbars would be a nice choice. Abby
