V-Grip Rope Clutch
The "V-Grip" Stopper is designed to provide high holding power with no line slippage, while allowing the line to be released under maximum load without the use of a winch. The line can also be tailed through the stopper without opening the cam mechanism.
The stopper's holding strength is increased by providing a longer V-shaped cam mechanism that increases the bearing surface on the line. This design reduces rope cover damage and the crushing of composite ropes such as Kevlar(R), Spectra(R) and Vectran(R). The stopper is also excellent for standard polyester braids.
