Orange Notch Rope Runner Pro | Limited Edition | for ropes Ø 11-13 mm

When it comes to tree climbing equipment, the Orange Notch Rope Runner Pro stands out as a beacon of innovation and reliability. Designed specifically for arborists who demand excellence in their climbing gear, this limited edition device offers a blend of functionality and efficiency unmatched in the field.

Crafted with the expertise of Notch and the original inventor Kevin Bingham, the Rope Runner Pro is a testament to thoughtful design and engineering. Its compatibility with 11 to 13mm diameter ropes and a working load limit of 287lbs (130kg) ensures it meets the rigorous demands of both SRS and MRS climbing. The device’s hot-forged aluminum, stainless steel, and nylon construction provide durability without the weight, tipping the scales at just 15oz (425g).

Arborists will appreciate the multiple friction settings, allowing for precise control over descent speed. The improved rounded top facilitates comfortable one-handed descents, while the concave-shaped steel bollards offer a smoother descent with minimal “break-in” period. The integration of sealed ball bearings in the pulley system enhances the overall efficiency, ensuring a seamless transition between climbing and descending.

The Orange Notch Rope Runner Pro is not only a tool but an extension of the climber. Its one-piece design, featuring Slic Pin retention, ensures ease of use and reliability. The device is fully mid-line attachable, staying in one piece for added safety. The flattened ‘bird’ sections are specifically designed for comfort during long descents, and the rope-friendly edges prevent wear and tear on your most crucial equipment.

Attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the Rope Runner Pro’s design. From the integrated SRS central ascent harness attachment point to the internal spring that protects against dirt and debris, every feature is crafted with the user’s safety and comfort in mind. The ergonomic design and enhanced features like the slic pins, which keep all parts together when the device is opened, underscore a commitment to quality and user satisfaction.

The Orange Notch Rope Runner Pro is more than just climbing gear for arborists; it’s a symbol of commitment to safety, efficiency, and reliability. Whether you’re ascending or descending, this tool ensures a smoother, more controlled experience, allowing you to focus on the task at hand with confidence.
