Product Description:
The Edelrid Ohm is an assisted-braking resistor to increase rope friction when there is a large weight difference between belayer and lead climber. In the event of a fall, the OHM increases the amount of rope friction so that a lighter belayer can hold a heavier lead climber without difficulty. Helping climbers with larger weight differences to climb together indoors and out, the Edelrid Ohm assisted braking device increases rope friction so a lighter belayer can hold a heavier lead climber.
Features:
- Ohm attaches at the first bolt in the safety chain; in the event of a fall, the rope is pulled into the device's braking unit and the fall is progressively arrested
- With Ohm, belay normally with your preferred belay device; Ohm is not a replacement for a belay device
- The Ohm makes it easier for a belayer to hold a fall and limits how high he or she is pulled off the ground; this can help reduce the distance a lead climber falls
- Lowering a heavier climber is also easier to control
- Ohm does not increase friction for the lead climber, nor does it negatively affect paying out the rope
- For single ropes with diameters of 8.9 to 11mm
- Recommended weight difference (lead climber & belayer): 25 & 85 lbs.; minimum belayer weight 85 lbs.
