X-CAM PERFORMANCE Until now, holding high loads with an ascender that features a toothed cam has not been pos- sible due to the sharpness of the teeth of the cam. The X-CamTM
from heightec® is a completely
new design of cam, which gives a considerable increase in performance over traditional sharp toothed models. By reducing the aggressiveness with which the cam acts, it increases the overall holding power by almost 50%. In addition, the X-CamTM
reduces the risk of catastrophic system
failure by being able to exert high load on a rope even after the sheath has ruptured. Testing proves up to a residual holding power of 200 kg after the sheath of a rope has broken.
The X-CamTM is featured in all heightec® ascenders.
