ZIGZAG®
Mechanical Prusik for Tree Care
For arborists and tree climbers, the ZIGZAG mechanical Prusik is designed to help you move in the canopy. It functions using the same technique as a classic Prusik pulley system, providing intuitive handling that quickly feels familiar. The friction chain provides smooth and precise movement between branches. The ZIGZAG is versatile and can be used in a moving rope system or a stationary rope system with the addition of a braking accessory. Built for demanding conditions in the canopy, it's designed to help limit wear.
