MAC-PRO
The simple yet robust rope protection device you can trust
Mac-pro has been developed, tested and made in Australia. Using a heavy duty nylon compound for protection against sharp edges, rope wear and high surface temperatures.
The mac-pro provides a smooth edge for a rope path, providing edge protection whilst threaded through the aperture of typical steel grid-mesh.
mac-pros can be used a range of applications including -
-
INDUSTRIAL ROPE ACCESS
-
COMMERCIAL ROPE ACCESS
-
EMERGENCY RESPONSE
-
TELECOMMUNICATIONS RIGGING
-
OFFSHORE OIL AND GAS PLATFORMS
-
RESOURCES SECTOR
-
REFINERIES
-
POWER STATIONS
THE MAC-PRO PROVIDES A SMOOTH EDGE FOR A ROPE PATH, PROVIDING EDGE PROTECTION WHILST THREADED THROUGH THE APERTURE OF TYPICAL STEEL GRID-MESH
THE MAC-PRO FITS MOST INDUSTRIAL STEEL GRID MESH
They can fit one or two 11mm or 13mm industrial static kernmantle ropes, making feeding ropes through grid mesh and retrieving them a quick and simple exercise.
The protector can be secured to the grid mesh with the supplied cord to prevent it becoming a dropped object.
Maximum service
temperature of 170˚C
Extremely high protection against UV degradation
High density nylon to prevent material crushing
High wear resistance facilitating lowering off personnel in emergency scenarios
1) Please note the mac-pro is not a friction modifier device and should not be used in extreme friction scenarios. 2) While the mac-pro is structurally sound enough to handle a 90 degree deviation, the grid mesh you are using might not be, ropes should be vertical before passing through the mac-pro when possible.
3) mac-pros are designed and tested for use with static kernmantle ropes only. The use of flexible steel wire ropes in conjunction with the mac-pro is not recommended and should not be undertaken.
