• Machined from 1/2 in. aluminum plate, the Rappel 8 contains almost twice the material of other small 8s, providing better heat dissipation.
• CMC's exotic proprietary black finish for even longer wear resistance.
• Large Hole Dia.: 2 in
• Color: Black
• Weight: 170 g
• Strength: 8,093 lbs (36kN).

CMC Rescue 8 Link

• The 8 Link is a key component of a rappel technique developed by CMC’s Tactical Rappel Class instructors.
• Rescue 8 Link allows you to extend your Figure 8 descender further away from your harness to make room for a safety Prusik Hitch below the descender.
• It attaches to the Figure 8 with a Girth Hitch.
• Multiple carabiner slots allow proper length adjustment.
• Pockets break at 1,100 lbs. (5kN).
• Overall strength is 5,000 lbs. (22KN).
• Color: Black
• CMC Rappel 8 with Ears is not included with link

CMC Rescue 8

• UL Classified to NFPA 1983 - General Use
• NFPA 1983 strength requirement for Descent Control System Components is 22 kN (4,946 lbf)
• The classic CMC Rescue 8 has been refined for even better performance with the current selection of rescue rope sizes from 7/16 to 5/8 inch.
• Today 5/8 in. rope is no longer common and the smaller dimensions of the new design provide greater control.
• CMC’s exotic proprietary black finish on the aluminum model provides outstanding wear resistance.
• The nickel-chrome plated steel model excels in the exceptionally high wear situations such as helicopter operations or sandy, gritty environments.
• The extended carabiner hole provides room for multiple carabiners.
• Both models are machined from 1/2 in. plate.
• Large hole dia.: 2.5 in.

CMC Survivor 8

• UL Classified to NFPA 1983 - Personal Escape Device
• This very small Figure 8 descender works well with Escape Lines or other small diameter ropes where minimum size and weight are the primary requirements.
• The rounded edges reduce sharp bends.
• The large carabiner hole accepts a wide variety of carabiners and helps prevent binding.
• Machined of 3/8 inch aluminum stock.
• Hard anodized in a dark gray for those users that require a non-reflective surface.
• For use with rope sizes 7.5 – 9.5mm (1/4 to 3/8 inch).
• Large hole diameter: 31mm (1.25 inch).
• Breaking strenght: 13.5kN (3,034 lbs)
• Weight: 42 grams, (1.5 oz)
