Description
The Stein OMEGA-20 Friction Ring Sling provides a lightweight and practical solution for controlled lowering and rope redirection during rigging tasks. From the outset, it uses a low friction ring as a versatile alternative to a traditional rigging block, which suits setups where free running or constant adjustment under load is not required.
Moreover, the friction ring uses high-grade aluminium with a hard anodised finish, so it delivers smooth rope movement and reduced wear. In addition, the ring is spliced into STEIN OMEGA rigging line, which combines abrasion resistance with strength; therefore, the sling performs reliably during demanding lowering work.
