ISC D5 Work Rescue Descender for 1/2" Rope

We are delighted to announce the launch of the eagerly awaited D5 Work/Rescue Descender.  The D5 Descender has been designed for use on 1/2" (12.7mm) rope. The D5 is compliant with NFPA G and Z359.4 (2013) and developed for the North American Fire & Rescue and Tower Climbing markets, which typically use 1/2" ropes. The D5 is a double-stop device with an auto-lock function, which is activated whenever the operator releases the handle; and a panic-brake function, which is not overly sensitive in normal use. The D5 also has a double-locking safety mechanism.  In addition to the locking button, the side plates are designed such that the plates cannot be rotated open, whilst under load, due to the position of the Karabniner.  The D5 is easy to attach/detach from the rope, without having to detach from the harness, therefore eliminating the risk of accidental dropping of the device.
