Closeout - BMS Nano-Belay and Nano-Unloader

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.
• Easily rigged midline and compatible with most 7/16" (11mm) and 1/2" (12.5mm) Nylon and Polyester Rescue Rope (Kernmantle)
• Automatically locks up with application of sudden load. Passes "hands 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.
• Nano-Unloader may be attached to either side of Nano-Belay in under 10 Seconds. Makes lowering easier in difficult situations.
• May be used with Load Releasing Hitches if Nano-Unloader is not used.
