Constrictor built-in textile blocker

TTC

Replace your conventional rope clamps with textile clamps: they’re lighter, more economical, more efficient and protect your Ropes from chafing. Built-in version for “pass-through” installation and space-saving at the piano.

Description

With the built-in version of the Constrictor textile blocker, block your Ropes through the deck or cap to save space at the piano and reduce knot bags.

The Constrictor® Cousin Trestec textile blocker is a non-aggressive system that preserves the quality of your ropes and considerably extends their service life. Thanks to its pull cord, it also enables easy release even under load and from a distance. Three times lighter and twice as strong as a traditional rope clamp, the Constrictor® textile rope clamp is easy to use and highly effective. It features a Technora® aramid fiber braid that closes under tension on the Rope and locks it instantly. The greater the tension, the more powerful the locking without deforming the rope. Release is easy, even under heavy load: Simply retract the sheath to release your Rope.

Advantages:

Non-aggressive constriction locking preserves the quality and service life of your Ropes
Easy, efficient and safe loading
Lighter and more resistant than a conventional blocker
The higher the voltage, the more effective the blocking.

Composition:

Metal baseplate
Sheath in high-tenacity Technora® Black fiber
Dyneema® toggle to unlock the locking device
5 references: from N° 6 to N° 14

Installation:

The Constrictor textile blocker is compatible with most existing Ropes (except those with a Dyneema® or Spectra® fiber sheath or sheath…).
Each clamp number corresponds to the recommended diameter of the end to be used (e.g. N° 8 for a Ø 8 mm Rope).
Ino-rope tip: to achieve a faster release if needed (e.g. spinnaker halyard), use a smaller diameter Rope than the blocker. (example: use 6 mm diameter Rope for a N°8).
