Rigging/Hardware
CMC Anchor Plates

CMC ANCHOR PLATES
UL Classified NFPA 1983 - General Use
A CMC original design that has stood the test of time, the CMC Anchor Plate keeps the carabiners holding the different parts of your rescue system from jamming together. The hardware becomes eaiser to see, making safety checks more accurate. It can also keep you from clipping a carabiner into the wrong loop of the anchor webbing. For anchor systems, it makes an excellent collection point. We use the Anchor Plate in CMC Rope Rescue classes, allowing our students to set up their systems faster, with fewer mistakes.
Hole Diameter: Small - 7/8 inch, Large - 2 inches.

SMC RESCUE SWIVEL
The SMC Rescue Swivel is built around a heat-treated steel axle and a sealed high efficiency ball-bearing to ensure flawless rotation during even prolonged and difficult raises in severe rock, mountain and rescue conditions. The holes are sized to work with rescue carabiners, and allow carabiner lock sleeves to pass through without hanging up. As one of the most compact swivels on the market, it is ideal for confined space rescue and other awkward hauling situations.

CMC Rescue 8

CMC RESCUE 8
UL Classified to NFPA 1983 - General Use
The classic CMC Rescue 8 has been refined for even better performance with the current selection of rescue rope sizes from 7/16 to 5/8 inch. Today 5/8 in. rope is no longer common and the smaller dimensions of the new design provide greater control. CMC's exotic proprietary finish on the aluminum model provides outstanding wear resistance. The nickel-chrome plated steel model excels in the exceptionally high wear situations such as helicopter operations or sandy, gritty environments. The extended carabiner hole provides room for multiple carabiners.
Large Hole (dia.): 2.5 in. (63mm)

* The NFPA 1983 (2006) minimum breaking strength is determined by rigging the descent control device in the manner of use, then locking off. For all CMC Rescue descenders, the failure mode was the rope, not the device being tested.
