Friction saver

Recommended Posts

I've left my friction saver somewhere and can't find it anywhere. Got a job tomorrow and my Lockjack doesn't like friction. Any alternatives? Doesn't have to be retrievable. Was thinking perhaps a couple of steel rigging crabs and a sling? Or rigging pulley and sling? Any suggestions? Cheers

any bit of rope thats strong enough and something to run it through, even add a pulley to it to make it smoother - on my old cambium saver i cut the ring off and attached a mailon with a micro pulley on it. Sling will work fine, even a bit of prussik cord will be strong enough- If you run it through a krab and then a micro pulley you should be able to retrieve it unless its a tight fork in which the knots may get stuck.
