{"product_id":"swinging-brake-bar-for-rack","title":"Swinging Brake Bar for Rack","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Petzl® Swinging Brake Bar for RACK (D11250) is the hinged, hook-equipped brake bar for the Petzl® RACK caving and rope-access descender. It replaces the one bar on the RACK that swings open and latches the rope in place, for cavers, canyoneers, and rope-access technicians renewing a worn descender.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the RACK, rope is threaded across a stack of bars on a stainless steel frame, and loading or unloading it is done by swinging the movable bars open on their hinge. This bar is the one built with a hook, so once the rope is threaded it can be latched closed to keep it captured on the frame through descents over 80 metres. Petzl sells the RACK's three bars individually so a technician can replace only the one worn by rope contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwings open on a hinge for quick rope loading and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated hook latches closed to retain the rope on the frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually to replace a single worn bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial(s):\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWorks with\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePetzl® RACK (D11) – the descender this bar is built for; also takes the RACK Fixed Brake Bar (D11300) and the Brake Bar Without Hook (D11200)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRACK Fixed Brake Bar (D11300) – the bar that stays bolted in a fixed position and does not swing or carry a hook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake Bar Without Hook for RACK (D11200) – a swinging-style bar without the retaining hook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes the Swinging Brake Bar (D11250) different?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Petzl® Swinging Brake Bar for RACK (D11250) both swings open on a hinge and carries a hook; the Fixed Brake Bar (D11300) stays bolted in place, and the Brake Bar Without Hook (D11200) swings but has no hook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the hook on the Swinging Brake Bar for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hook on the Petzl® Swinging Brake Bar for RACK latches the bar closed once the rope is threaded, so the rope stays captured on the frame for the descent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Swinging Brake Bar for RACK certified?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo – it is a spare part with no certification of its own, sold to maintain a properly functioning Petzl® RACK descender.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Petzl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67596055937112,"sku":"D11250","price":14.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/sirensafety.com\/products\/swinging-brake-bar-for-rack","provider":"Siren Safety","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
