Using the latest Solidworks™ 3D Computer Aided Design (CAD) software provides us with a complete design and virtual proving environment with the ability to interrogate and simulate designs virtually using software. This capability enables our engineers to interact in virtual reality with the products to visualise, test, and optimise the design. To complement our design abilities we have advanced in house prototyping facilities. These include both manual and Computer Numeric Controlled (CNC) machining centres. Our CNC machines are networked to our MasterCAM X™ Computer Aided Machining (CAM) software which allows rapid programming of machinery to produce complex 3D surfaces and shapes. The cross section of machinery available allows us to rapidly, accurately and repeatedly reproduce our designs in any metal or plastic material required.
Our quality system is regularly audited by external auditors SGS UK Ltd and is certified to ISO9001:2008.
Escape Descender
RP860
The D2 Escape Descender is a new & innovative ‘double-stop’ Descender. The ‘Double-stop’ function means that the D2 Descender has a sweet spot in which descent speed can be easily controlled. Either side of the sweet spot there is an auto-lock function -when the user lets go of the handle it automatically stops and when the user pulls the handle too hard it automatically stops (often referred to as a ‘panic-stop’).
Features & Applications Our engineers developed a new handle operated cam-system specifically so that in a panic situation the Descender would actually stop the descent, rather than just slow it down– the D2 Descender is the only Micro-Descender in the world to offer this function.
Descend
The D2 can be controlled by pushing in the cam (ideally using the thumb) which allows the user to smoothly feed the rope through the device, without the use of the handle. The cam feed feature is particularly useful for fast Bail-out or for work positioning during roof work for example. It is also easy to back-feed the rope through the D2 and therefore it can be used for smooth ascending or for emergency hauling (when used as part of a 2:1 ‘Z-rig’).
Stop & Reset
Panic Brake
The Descender is compact and lightweight, allowing it to be carried on the harness at all times – some harness manufacturers have even integrated it into a harness back-pack so that self-rescue can be made easy.
Indicator Arrow
D2 Kits The D2 is designed to work with 7.5 and 8mm ropes of various materials. Aramid fibres such as Technora are perfect for use in applications where fire may be the main hazard (such as bail-out or evacuation from wind turbines). Standard Polyester ropes are ideal for use in other areas (such as Linesman self-rescue from pole tops or for escape from towers or elevating work platforms/skylifts). We offer a range of standard D2 Kits, with bespoke options available on request.

Work Rescue Descender
Features & Applications Primed
The NEW D4 Descender features a unique and innovative progressive cam action, which offers precise control at slow or fast speeds. The progressive cam works by way of one cam operating inside another cam. Descend
Reset
Panic brake
The D4 is a double-stop device with an auto-lock function which is activated whenever the operator lets go of the handle. The panic brake will only lock out when in free-fall. This is another innovative feature of the progressive cam design, meaning that the panic brake is not overly sensitive in normal use. We feel that it is very important that a Descender device has a double stop mechanism, as although there are many highly qualified/competent height safety workers, the majority are not.
Parked/Locked
The D4 cam is made from solid Stainless Steel and is very wear and corrosion resistant. The device has an in-built wear indicator. The D4 Descender cams are replaceable (by competent trained personnel), potentially giving the D4 a longer in-use life. The D4 also has a double safety locking mechanism – when loaded, the side plates cannot be rotated open due to the positioning of the Karabiner, but in addition the D4 has been designed with a push button ‘click-lock’ safety closure. The D4 is easy to attach/detach from rope without detaching from operators harness. RP880 D4 Descender Weight Rated Load Rope Standards

The D4 is suitable for rescue as it has a rated load of 240kg and is suitable for use with 10.5-11mm Low Stretch ropes (EN1891).
Descenders (continued)
Features & Applications
Features & Applications Pro ALLP
A-B Descender
The Pro ALLP gives the user the option of standard lever-controlled descent, or screw-controlled descent adjustment. The screw control allows for precise adjustment and can also be used in ’Auto-lock’ mode. Once the desired speed of descent has been achieved, the Auto-lock function can be activated, putting the Descender in to ‘cruise control’.
The A-B Descender is a ’squeeze style’ device, which was designed for use in Technical Rope Access, Intervention/ Special Forces and is rated for two-person rescue loads. The A-B Descender has a panic brake function which is activated when the user pulls too hard on the handle and/or if the user lets go of the handle.
The Pro ALLP is rated for a two-person load and is suitable for use in rescue applications. The Pro ALLP is NOT fitted with panic brake function
Screw Control For precise adjustment and cruise control
RP810
The A-B Descender is fitted with an extended, spring-loaded flip down handle to give extra leverage when a finer degree of descent control is required. The flip down handle is of particular use for extra control of a two-person rescue load.

Figure 8 & 9s
Features & Applications The Rescue Figure 8 devices have extended side bars to keep the rope in place, preventing the rope from creeping inwards and causing unwanted locking. The Figure 9 device performs in a similar way to the Rescue 8, but has the extra benefit of an anti-twist attachment point. The attachment hole has been twisted through 90 degrees (compared with the standard Figure 8 Device) thus eliminating the unwanted twisting between the device and harness connection. RP110
RP120
The RP120 Micro 8 is suitable for use on 5-7mm Rope.
Edge Protection The ISC Edge Roller is ideal for protecting ropes from wear. Each Edge Roller box has base rollers and side rollers, to protect the rope from edge wear and lateral movement. Edge Roller boxes are sold separately and boxes can be added or removed to suit the terrain of each application.

Back-up Device
IRATA’s Choice The RED’s cams have a positively locking spring which means the device is self-parking rather than self-tailing. This is important for Rope Access work techniques as they require the back-up device to be positioned so as to reduce fall factors to a minimum.

RP892 RP892
RP891
Poppertm Cord
Rotational Braking
The Poppertm device is a breakaway release Clip, which provides a secondary attachment point for the tow cord. When used during normal positioning activity, this secondary attachment point allows the user to tow the device directly downwards. In a panic situation the Poppertm clip releases under the force. The RED is designed for use with an 800mm dynamic cowstail, without the need for a shock absorber.
The RED makes use of ‘Rotational Braking’ which means that the device rotates clockwise creating friction and resistance, which then results in very effective automatic braking in the event of a sudden pull on the cows-tail. To increase the effectiveness of the Rotational Brake in a ‘panic’ situation (e.g. mainline failure) the Red is also available with a ‘Popper’ breakaway tow-cord.
Approved Ropes The RED should be used with Low Stretch 10.5—11.0mm (3/87/16”) ropes (EN1891) only.

THE WORLD’S MOST VERSATILE MODULAR TOTAL EDGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM How it Works The Arachnipod Total Edge Management System is an innovative design that captures multi-functional capabilities. Simplicity and robust engineering provide the world’s most versatile modular, total edge management system. The Arachnipod in its basic form is a Tripod. It consists of three basic telescoping legs, each pivotally connected to an Anodised Head. The Head is produced from Aluminium extrusion with cutouts down each side. These cutouts allow two or more heads to connect together with a Quik-link Pin (similar to a hinge), which allows quick and simple addition or removal of legs, or bridge beam, to create different configurations. Each head has a D-shaped shackle for guying to stabilise the structure. The Pulley Leg has an inbuilt Pulley, which is mounted on two Stainless Steel Roller Bearings. The Pulley is Stainless Steel and has two grooves– one to take up to 13mm (1/2”) rope and the other to take up to 8mm (5/16”) wire cable. Stainless detent pins prevent the rope or wire from coming out of the grooves.

Progress Capture Pulleys
The latest range of ISC Progress Capture Pulleys (PCP) now feature a new lightweight centre plate, re-positioned wheel to reduce rope friction and a rated Becket, through which even an ANSI Karabiner can be fully rotated. All PCPs are fitted with tamper-proof rivets and are individually serial numbered. The cam-faces are coned (rather than spiked) to minimise rope wear.
Features & Applications
RP700/701
Progress-capture Pulleys incorporate a cam which (when roped correctly) automatically captures the load whilst lifting/pulling a load or tensioning a line. To lower/release the line the cam must be manually unclamped by using the flexible Dyneema release cord and pinned clear of the rope during the lower/release of the line. One-way Locking Bearings To assist in controlling that lower/release, the one –way bearings (when roped correctly) will not turn, which means that they then act as a static bollard thereby giving the operator much more control. Progress-capture pulleys can be used in all sorts of applications, such as hauling, tensioning & work positioning heavy loads. Suitable for use with max 13mm (1/2”) Rope.

R-ALFtm Rescue Auto Locking Pulley
The R-ALFTM has an over-speed brake built in so that it will automatically lock and hold when a fall occurs. The load rated becket eye can be used in combination with a range of ISC medium Prussik pulleys to set up a 3:1 pick-off kit or a 5:1 hauling kit –and whichever combination is used if the user ever loses control of the descent the over-speed brake will automatically kick-in.
Features & Applications The R-ALFTM system can be set up with almost any EN1891A 11mm (7/16th”) rope – the only practical limitation to ‘height of lift’ being rope stretch and/or kit weight. The R-ALFTM can be used as part of a work suspension system either on tall structures or in confined spaces – a user can easily lift/lower themselves and lock themselves off by using a hand ascender and a short strop. The unique design of the R-ALF means that an internal brake is not required and therefore the R-ALFtm is capable of several thousand cycles and many arrests*. RP431
The Standard R-ALF (RP431) locks in both directions. The LH-ALF Device (RP433) locks in one direction only and therefore the device will only lock to arrest a fall, leaving the user free to haul at higher speeds, without accidentally engaging the locking mechanism. * Minimum 12 monthly service intervals apply

ALFtm Climb Assist Pulley
The ALFtm is designed for climbing vertical structures such as ladders and is ideal for use in Ropes Courses. Fall distance is limited to a few centimetres. Rescue is made easy with the ALF™-fall distances are extremely small so it is unlikely that a person will be incapacitated, but if this happens a rescue can easily be organised from ground level, unlike the majority of fall arrest devices where a rescuer must climb up (therefore putting himself at risk) to make the rescue .
Rigging
RP430 ALF Climb Assist Pulley
How it Works The ALF Climb Assist Pulley uses a uniquely designed locking system, which combines a speed sensitive inertia locking brake system, with a grooved pulley wheel. At low speed (during normal use), the rope runs freely through the pulley. In the event of a fall, the rope speed accelerates causing the inertia brake to kick in, to promptly arrest the fall. Fall distances are extremely short, so in most cases the fallen user can regain their grip on the structure and resume their climb, without the need for assistance/instruction. The ALF Pulley is a two-way locking device which can be rigged in a continuous loop system with Alpine Butterfly attachment loops at opposing ends of the system. This means that at the end of each climb/descent, there is always an attachment loop present, allowing the next user to immediately commence their climb/descent.
Applications
Alpine Butterfly Attachment Loop, with Karabiner
The ALF Climb Assist Pulley was developed with users in the Challenge Course industry, who needed a simple mechanical method of protecting multiple climbers en route around a ropes course. The ALF provides a simple, cost effective solution, which utilises industry standard (EN1891) low-stretch 11mm (7/16�) rope. The continuous loop systems can be quickly and easily rigged, by a competent person. The ALF Climb Assist Pulley can also be used as a solution for workers on towers & masts, wind turbines and in construction applications.

SmartSnaptm is a self-belay system which allows a user to traverse all the individual elements of a course without ever being able to detach from the line. SmartSnaptm is really simple to use and therefore doesn’t require in depth user training; it is lightweight and is therefore perfectly suitable for children to use. The SmartSnaptm has been designed so that it can easily be retro-fitted to an existing course.
View the SmartSnap Demo Video: www.youtube.com/iscmarketing
How it Works The SmartSnap has two locking gates, which are controlled by a mechanism which only allows one gate to be open at any one time. Each course user wears a SmartSnap Device, attached to their harness by a short lanyard. At the beginning of the course, the Supervisor attaches red gate of the SmartSnap to the wire [Figure 1] and locks the gate, using the wire-mounted key [Figure 2]. The user then travels to the next change-over point, where they clip the blue gate on to the Ring Key lanyard [Figure 3]. The user then inserts the spike of the Ring Key in to a hole [Figure 4]. This action simultaneously locks the Blue gate AND unlocks the Red gate [Figure 5], releasing the user from the previous element, and allowing them to safely attach to the next element.

Special Projects
Penrhyn Quarry in the Snowdonia National Park (Wales) is now home to Europe’s longest and fastest Zipline. Visitors to the Zipworld attraction take flight on the ‘Little Zipper’ 450m long Zipline and the ‘Big Zipper’, the 1750m long Zipline which plunges down over the quarry from the 700ft high summit! When approached to manufacture a Zip Trolley worthy of the task, we got straight on to it...
The Brief The Snowdonia National Park in North Wales was to become home to the UK's Heart of Adventure thanks to Europe's longest and fastest Zipline. A Zipline this big and this fast needed a trolley equal to the task– and since we are at the heart of innovative engineering in North Wales, we immediately accepted the challenge! Some serious work went into the Zipline construction, the trolley and even the special 'Superman' harness. ZipWorld has two Zip lines on site in Penrhyn Quarry. The ‘Little Zipper’ is a 450m long line, but the main attraction for the adrenaline-hungry thrillseekers is the 1750m ‘Big Zipper’! Those brave enough to take on the Big Zipper will fly down the quarry at speeds in excess of 75mph (110kph)!
The ZipWorld ‘Superman’ Harness
To achieve this kind of speed, a very special Zipline Trolley was needed. The ZipWorld Trolleys needed to be big, but not too heavy. The trolleys needed to be durable and able to withstand the most extreme of environmental conditions. Each trolley is fitted with top grade wheel bearings, which are capable of running at high speeds and perform consistently within a wide range of temperatures. The wheels are made from a special material, which is capable of tens of thousands of zip miles, without causing undue wear to the cable. The wheels also offer a low decibel output during the flight.

Portawraps
Application & Features ISC Portawraps are designed for lowering loads of up to 1000kg, with consistent friction for total control. ISC Portawraps have main and secondary attachment points , to offer extra stability of the device against the tree. The small Portawrap (AE150) has a 50mm (2”) diameter, giving a bend ratio of approximately 3.5 : 1 and can be used with ropes of up to 13mm (1/2”), to lower loads of up to 800kg. The large Portawrap (AE160) has a 75mm (3”) diameter, giving a bend ratio of approximately 4.5 : 1 and can be used with rope of up to 16mm (5/8”), for lowering loads of up to 1000kg. The AE160 also has captive attachment points, where Karabiners can be attached around the working line, to keep the working line in place.

Rope Wrench
126g (5oz)
The Singing Tree Rope Wrench (STRW) creates a “bend” above the climbers hitch on the single line which, with the addition of the tether to connect to the STRW, creates a “contained doubled rope system” on the single line. This “contained doubled rope system” travels with the climber throughout the tree allowing for a level of consistency of friction on the hitch which is impossible to duplicate in doubled rope climbing. The Singing Tree Rope Wrench (STRW) is manufactured and distributed by ISC.
How it works The Rope Wrench is a unique and innovative device, designed by Kevin Bingham of Singing Tree. RP280
The STRW allows so many more options for safe movement in the tree whilst using a single rope, enabling re-directs and a greater degree of friction control than that achieved using double rope.
NEW
The STRW allows far greater flexibility and opens up a wide range of new working possibilities. In double rope climbing, friction levels never remain constant due to rope running over limbs, re-directs and Pulleys. The STRW allows for single rope climbing and therefore friction always remains consistent, which allows the user precise control in the tree, without creating excess slack in the system (as can occur in double rope technique). The STRW also allows the user to easily pass any limbs which obstruct their route- it is possible to pass obstructions when using DRT, but it can be a very tricky manoeuvre!
ZK-2 New Features The smaller, lighter design works well with the stiff tether, which keeps the STRW away from the hitch. The ZK-2 Rope Wrench is detachable, by way of a Slic-pin. The introduction of a Pulley wheel keeps the rope round, so there’s less rope flattening than with the ZK-1 version. Rope Wrench Pulley

Chest Ascender The ISC Chest Ascender is compact & lightweight and has been designed for use on a full body harness, and therefore it is ideal for use in Rope Access work. The Chest Ascender has an increased grip at low load, even on wet, greasy/oily ropes. The spikes are angled downwards, giving maximum grip, whilst allowing the cam to slide easily up the rope. The cam is spring-loaded and fitted with a catch mechanism, to allow for easy one-handed operation of the device whilst attaching/removing the device to/from the rope. Suitable for use on 9-13mm (5/161/2”) Rope.

We manufacture a wide range of Quick Release Buckles for the Motor Racing Industry, to suit FIA/ SFI standards requirements.
Tangs
Body Type ISC QRBs are available with standard or Streamline, (light & compact) bodies, which are machined from Aerospace Grade Aluminium.
Lids
ISC Tangs are stamped and have ergonomic, rounded edges. Standard Tangs are available in flat, or 20o cranked versions. Standard Tangs are available with a Silver or Black finish. Long Moustache Tangs are also available.
We offer a choice of machined or Forged lids. Forged lids are available with short or long handles to suit FIA or SFI requirements.
Buckle Opening QRBs fitted with a Rotary mechanism release their tangs as soon as the user begins to rotate the lid. With the Lost Motion mechanism, the lid must be turned 25 degrees in either direction, before the mechanism disengages and begins to release the tangs. Lost Motion helps to prevent accidental opening.
