Combines the key features of load management devices and personal descenders: reducing equipment training and cost.

Moves seamlessly between anchor-based systems and personal use, doing the job of multiple pieces of equipment.

Delivers up to 38% higher efficiency in hauling and ascending than a cam-style device: reducing changeovers.

Single wearable tool for efficient hauling, controlled lowering, smooth personal descent, easy ascending, belaying, and Twin Tension Rope Systems.

It moves seamlessly between anchor-based systems and personal use, offering unmatched versatility for the rope technician. Suited to a multitude of rigging operations, the CLUTCH delivers efficient operation, ease of use, and optimal control. This multi-purpose device was designed and engineered in collaboration by two companies with a collective 90 year history in rope management under heavy loads: CMC, a company with roots in rescue and rope access, and Harken Industrial, a manufacturing company with roots in high performance sailing. Introducing the all-new CLUTCH, the latest evolution in rescue and rope access hardware that enables the technical rope professional to do more with less.
