NFPA 3" Prusik Minding Pulley

These are the largest of three sizes of SMC Prusik Minding Pulleys and therefore handle the largest loads and toughest tasks. They may be used in many ways, from hauling and crevasse rescue to high-lines and Tyrolean traverses, hence PMPs are an important piece of equipment in wilderness and alpine exploration as well as in all types of rescue. PMPs feature a wide base design that maximizes the effectiveness of a Prusik hitch and are most often used as an integral piece of equipment in progress capture and hauling systems.

The D-shaped top hole accepts up to 3 large rescue carabiners or multiple small carabiners and allows the carabiners to be rotated freely and completely through the hole. Side plates are precisely tensioned to aid one-handed use. Solid side plates also help to restrict foreign object access and low-profile fasteners help to further reduce snagging. Sealed ball bearings provide optimal efficiency and reduce the performance- robbing resistance that is inherent in most multiple component systems and are not prone to failure under misaligned loads or with twisted gear that may occur with needle bearings. The single has Red and Grey side plates while the double has Gold and Grey side plates.
