The Edelrid G-Sceamer is a small, light HMPE sling with an integrated, compact shock absorber that can offer important safety reserves in alpine terrain or when big wall or ice climbing. With a length of 15 cm, it is hung between two carabiners like a quickdraw sling and used as protection in the case of questionable anchor points and/or larger gaps so as to minimize the load on such anchor points.

In the event of a fall, the shock absorber deploys, absorbing energy and reducing the impact force on the anchor point to less than 4 kN. The total length following the full deployment of the shock absorber is 100 cm. Thanks to its minimal weight of less than 50 g, the G-screamer is only negligibly heavier than a conventional quickdraw sling while still offering a major safety reserve when attached to a harness.

As an additional innovative use, when combined with rope clamps pursuant to EN 567, the G-Screamer fulfills the dynamic requirements established in EN 15151-1 (braking devices with manually assisted locking) so as to enable belaying with rope clamps. This combination vastly reduces the probability of rope damage if the follower falls.

Features:
• HMPE sling with integrated compact shock absorber
• Areas of application: Alpine, big wall and ice climbing with questionable anchor points
• Reduces the dynamic force applied to the anchor to less than 4 kN
• Static response force 3 kN
• With a weight of less than 50 g, only slightly heavier than a conventional quickdraw sling
• Braking distance 85 cm (total length opened: 100 cm)
• The combination of G-Screamer and rope clamp in accordance with EN 567 fulfils the dynamic requirements of EN 15151-1 (braking devices with manually assisted locking) and can therefore be used for belaying on second ascent
• Must not be used as a replacement for a via ferrata set

Details:
• Minimum breaking strength: 22 kN
• Certification: EN 566
• Material: HMPE
