The ever growing demand for the SMC Rescue StayK (picket system) from all divisions of the Emergency Response Industry, Fire Departments, Rope Rescue, Swift Water Rescue, etc., is due to the fact that all other picket systems are viewed as primitive at best. The SMC Rescue StayK system is versatile, accommodating, and by far the most effective, efficient, and reliable system available today that renders all other systems obsolete.

SMC Roof Rollers are a piece of versatile equipment that are most often used to reduce the friction of ropes running over edges of all kinds. Roof Rollers may also be used to protect fire hoses, air supply and communication lines passing over sharp or otherwise abrasive edges. Lightweight aluminum frames are welded and then powder coated bright yellow for visibility, durability, resistance to corrosion and abrasion protection.

The SMC Spider is an Auto Braking NFPA T Rated Descender designed for work positioning and personal descent.

Widely described as the best rappel device in the world, rappel racks are simple, rugged, very versatile and a vital piece of rescue or work-safety equipment. While there are a variety of other devices such as Figure 8 Descenders and mechanical belay devices, the basic, standard length, six bar J-frame rappel rack has versatility that most devices lack, allowing the user to adjust friction by adding or removing bars while under load, doing so results in greater control of the rate of descent. A rappel rack may be quickly tied-off which then frees both hands in order to assist with an individual in rescue scenarios, for rigging other gear, and in a variety of other situations. All SMC Rappel Rack frames are stainless steel in order to provide exceptional strength, reliability, and durability.

If you want to start a heated debate among Rappel Rack aficionados just ask the group what style is best, J-Racks or U-Racks- Both share benefits such as providing the largest range of friction control with a variety of ropes, being great as either a lowering device or on rappel, not twisting ropes and so on. The benefit that people most often attribute to the U-Rack over the J-Rack is greater strength. This is a fallacy, despite being the common understanding, as the system fails when the rope brakes rather than the device breaking. As a result, both types of racks achieve similar ratings.

The Shuttle Cable Xtreme is considered the top dog in the SMC tandem series line. Designed for extreme or continuous service in permanently rigged challenge courses, commercial ziplines and eco-tourism applications. Ideal in high-use environment where users push their gear to the limit. Focusing on the commercial operator by giving them the ability to replace bearings and extending the overall useful life of this extraordinary pulley. The Shuttle Xtreme is light weight, strong and reliable, along with user replaceable sealed ball bearings and long wear alloy sheaves makes this the ideal tandem pulley for the professional user. Maximum speed rating is 20 meters per second.

The SMC Rescue Swivel is built around a heat-treated steel axle and a sealed high efficiency ball-bearing to ensure flawless rotation during even prolonged and difficult raises in severe rock, mountain and rescue conditions. The holes are sized to work with rescue carabiners, and allow carabiner lock sleeves to pass through without hanging up. As one of the most compact swivels on the market, it is ideal for confined space rescue and other awkward hauling situations. The sides are smooth and rounded, helping to prevent hanging up on rocks, litters, or other components or structures. All SMC NFPA products are third party tested (by Underwriters Laboratories - UL) as required by NFPA 1983 (2012 edition) standards.

Looking for a well-built, small pulley that has plenty of capacity and performs well- The SMC Micro PMP-s (singles and doubles) are exactly what you need. These are the smallest of three sizes of Prusik Minding Pulleys made by SMC, but don-t let their small size cause you to question their performance! These pulleys are designed and manufactured to the same high quality standards as our full-sized PMP-s.

The Micro U-Rack provide even distribution of weight between both sides of the rack, does not twist rope, as can occur when using a Figure 8 type descender and may be used with single ropes of varying diameters without the loss of friction or control under varying weights and applications

The Shuttle Cable allows more experienced users all the same features as the Shuttle Rope, except where cable is used in place of rope. Ideal for recreational ziplines, basic challenge courses, as well as your local fire rescue/SAR gear cache. This light weight, strong and reliable pulley is an upgrade to the Shuttle Rope that utilizes four sealed ball bearings and stainless steel sheaves for efficient performance. Maximum speed rating is 10 meters per second.
