SMC SINGLE Aluminum NFPA 2" Prusik Minding Pulley
Now in Black! [SM152700N]
$53.85
Accepts ropes up to 13mm.
One of our newest pulleys, the 2” PMP is sized to fit between our Micro PMP and 3” PMPs and represents a mid-sized option for those needing the unique features of a PMP.
We believe this pulley to be one of the lightest UL Certified pulleys meeting NFPA “G” General Use. Sealed ball bearing provide optimal efficiency and reduce the performance-robbing resistance that is inherent to most multiple component systems. In addition, sealed ball bearings are not prone to failure under misaligned loads or with twisted gear as can be the case with other types of bearings. Prusik Minding Pulleys are especially versatile and may used in many ways, from progress capture and hauling systems to crevasse rescue, high-lines and Tyrolean traverses. The wide base design maximizes the effectiveness of a Prusik hitch while a unique side plate formation allows the use of larger ropes in a compact pulley. An oversized bell-shaped top hole accepts 2 large rescue carabiners or multiple small carabiners and allows the carabiners to be rotated freely and completely. Solid side plates help prevent foreign object access and reduce snagging. Offered with either with Green and Black side plates or all Black side plates.

The Rock Exotica™ OMNI BLOCK® is a mix of the old and the new. Rotating swivel pulleys, called “blocks” in year past, have been around for centuries with drawing dating back to ancient Greek inventor, Archimedes (The first know recorded source of the common pulley system). Originally the first such pulleys were carved and fashioned from actual blocks of wood reinforced with metal banding to prevent the wood from splitting under load. Up to now, rescue pulleys have been the standard side swing plate models that involve rotating the side plate and the introduction of the rope into the sheave. Increased strength is cited as the main reason that life safety pulleys are designed this way.
Incredibly quick to attach, the Rock Exotica Omni Block is a high strength (38 kN), swiveling rope block/pulley. Like RE’s popular swivel connector, these pulleys eliminate twisting from rope rigging systems with smooth, ball bearing action. Each precision fabricated alloy block has a unique button-activated release feature that allows instant access to the sheave for midline attachment. The milled alloy attachment eye is large enough to accept most carabiners and snaps. Pulley 1.5” and accepts up to ½” rope.
