Product description The Nano-Belay and Nano-Unloader are two of the newest and hottest items on
the market for belays during rescue. They are both manufactured by Bassett
Metal Studios. Since the Nano-Unloader requires the Nano-Belay we sell
them as a combination unit. If you just need one piece please call us for
details. The image on the left of the photo is the Nano-Belay. The
image on the right is the Nano-Unloader attached to the Nano-Belay. The
Nano-Unloader is easily attached and removed from the Nano-Belay in under 10
seconds.
- All Stainless Steel Construction, high strength, abrasion and corrosion
resistance, no aluminum parts to discolor rope.
- Spring Latch in second bar keeps bar closed but opens easily in event of
incorrect rigging.
- Frame deforms under severe impact loads to indicate over loading without
loss of strength
- Frame Strength over 14,000 lbs.
- Easier and faster to rig than tandem triple wrap Prusik knots, usually under 20 seconds. Eliminates Prusik and belay line compatibility as
well as knot dressing issues.
- Lowers shock to system through controlled slippage in the event of a
mainline failure over Prusik knot belays, easier on system, patients and
personnel.

1/2" (12.5mm) Nylon and Polyester Rescue Rope (Kernmantle)

off" or "whistle" tests.
- Excellent Lowering Control with optional Nano-Unloader allows Nano-Belay
and Nano-Unloader combination to be used as a Lowering Device.

Seconds. Makes lowering easier in difficult situations.
