CMC Rescue 8 Link

The 8 Link is a key component of a rappel technique developed by our Tactical Rappel Class instructors. It allows you to extend your Figure 8 descender further away from your harness to make room for a safety Prusik Hitch below the descender. It attaches to the Figure 8 with a Girth Hitch. Multiple carabiner slots allow proper length adjustment. Pockets break at 1,100 lbs. (5kN). Overall strength is 5,000 lbs. (22KN). CMC Rappel 8 with Ears, listed on page 31, is not included with link.
