ISC or DMM RIGGING PULLEY ?

[andrew t]

I need a new rigging pulley but have been spoiled for choice as both companys have new blocks in there range but after seeing the video for DMM should it be a no brainer as the DMM has the tag line/speedline hole on it so would be more usefull. Question is who uses what and why?

Only the large DMM has the extra hole in the block. They are expensive! I would like the small one to have the hole. Horses for courses, if your not paying get the DMM!

[andrew t]

I noticed the small pulley not having the hole like you say i wish it did. I have a large yellow ISC at the mo if its a fair bit smaller than that one then i will probably get it as you said im not paying but also you are getting more for your money so boss wins also:lol:

Think the DMM ones are forged, ISC are cast. I have one of the new ISC ones, seems perfectly good...

The new ones are nice looking from ISC they to have the rounded edges like the DMM but are missing the hole that the large DMM has.

If anyone else on here is useing the large DMM with the hole for tag line / speedline can you let me know how you are getting on any pics or videos would be great .

the DMM has heaps of excuses to buy it just for the shear fact that its sexy as hell, but we have had this discussion before ??? in fact more than once,...the ISC pulley has been, tried, tested, abused, tickled, and destroyed it is a legendary pulley and even DMM can not take that away from them, its is a shame there not of similar price, then we could see who favours what just on sales......at the end of the day they both get the job done and done very well indeed.....

 

let us know what you choose and why....
