The Scarab® represents five years of research and testing by Rick Lipke and the design team at Conterra. It was born out of the need for a small, simple device that could easily control heavy rescue loads, as well as excel at pick offs, twin rope systems and other general rescue techniques. The Scarab® does all this and more. With two models available, the Scarab® is the perfect choice for both Fire/Rescue and back country rescue environments:

• Incredibly strong
• Does not twist the rope
• Instantly adjustable friction (just wrap a horn)
• Lower 600 lb loads with two fingers
• Super easy lock off
• Easy to use, right or left handed
• Single and double rope capable
• Attach rope without unclipping from anchor
