Single Rope Controller (SRC)

The SRC is a dynamic auto-locking belay device for a single rope of 10-11mm diameter. In the event of a fall, the belay carabiner forces the rope against the device, "locking" off the device. So although the SRC is not a true ‘auto-lock’ and certainly not sold as a ‘hands-free’ device it lessens the input from the climber to hold a fall, as well as holding any fall more dynamically lessening the impact force. This means that the climber is less bruised, there is less stress on bolts, biners and harness and less danger of failures in the system.
