Product detailed description
HANDS UP by Hexarope offers an innovative solution for lowering that significantly simplifies and speeds up rope system connections without using knots or metal connectors. This compact element enables safe and repeatable attachment of rope loops or eyes around loads and branches, increasing both efficiency and safety in tree canopy work.
The device’s design, mimicking two closed hands, ensures a firm grip on the rope, loop, or connector without the need for complex tying techniques. This greatly reduces preparation time and lowers the risk of errors during tying or releasing connections. HANDS UP functions as a knotless textile interface that stays exactly where it's needed—without unwanted movement or loosening.
It is suitable for both static and negative lowering, including situations where the anchor point is below the load. With a high tensile strength (up to 96 kN) and working load limit (WLL up to 16 kN), the device is ready to handle demanding loads during controlled cuts, directional felling, or suspended part handling.
Three sizes are available to fit rope diameters from 9 to 20 mm. HANDS UP is fully compatible with textile connectors, soft shackles, and systems like HexaRing. Its robust construction allows for repeated use with minimal maintenance – it withstands dirt and wet environments with ease.
This product is intended exclusively for technical use and is not classified as personal protective equipment (PPE). HANDS UP is the ideal choice for professional arborists and tree workers who demand maximum reliability and efficiency in every cut.
