Description
The Stein OMEGA-16 Friction Ring Sling provides a lightweight solution for controlled lowering and rope redirection during rigging tasks. From the start, it uses a low friction ring as a practical alternative to a rigging block, so it suits setups where constant adjustment under load is not needed.
Moreover, the aluminium friction ring features a hard anodised finish, which delivers smooth rope travel and helps reduce 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.
