The frame and crossbar’s strength is greater than 40kN. In real world tests with Nylon rescue ropes, the ropes fail at the nose of the Scarab® at about their knotted strength (just like most other descent control devices). When pulling a 12.7mm rescue rope on a tied off Scarab®, the rope breaks at about 27kN, which easily exceeds the 22kN strength rating that NFPA calls out for to rate class “G” for descent control devices. In addition to a battery of slow pull and drop tests, the Scarab® has undergone extensive heat and wear studies. One device was tested by pulling over a mile of dirty rope through it under rescue sized tension, with temperature reading thermocouples being monitored at several locations during pulls. At 2kN of tension, and a lowering speed of 10M per minute, the Scarab® maintained a frame temperature at about 100 degrees C. To our knowledge, the Scarab® is the only descent control device to have been tested to this degree.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eLight and incredibly strong\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDoes not twist the rope\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInstantly adjustable friction (just wrap a horn)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLower 600 lb loads with two fingers\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSuper easy lock off\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEasy to use, right or left handed\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSingle and double rope capable\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAttach rope without unclipping from anchor\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003eScarab FR\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMachined from solid 303 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 9 mm to 13 mm rope\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWeight: 385g (13.8 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeets NFPA 1983 (12 ED) “G” (general use) for 12.5 mm rope\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eScarab TI\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMachined from solid Titanium plate\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 6 mm to 11 mm rope\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWeight: 185g (6.6 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n            \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        ","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Stainless Steel","offer_id":48474307002468,"sku":"SCARAB","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0785\/4689\/4948\/files\/ScarabFR__38210.1569365884.jpg?v=1779936571","url":"https:\/\/gear.campsaver-us.com\/products\/conterra-scarab-descender-rescue-tool","provider":"Camp Gear Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
