Trapeze 5

The Trapeze 5 is an innovative self-closing shackle from ART. Its unique design prevents throwlines from snagging and raises the standard for safety and ease of use in arborist and climbing work.

The Trapeze 5 represents a breakthrough in shackle technology. This multifunctional shackle closes automatically and is extremely easy to use. With no traditional spring nose, throwlines cannot snag, minimising risks during work at height. When the gate opens, it slides fully into the side to avoid blockages. With its patented construction (Utility Model), the Trapeze 5 sets a new standard for functionality and design.
