The G-SCREAMER is a small, light HMPE sling with an integrated, compact shock absorber that can offer important safety reserves in alpine terrain or when big wall or ice climbing.

With a length of 15 cm, it is hung between two carabiners like a quickdraw sling and used as protection in the case of questionable anchor points and/or larger gaps so as to minimize the load on such anchor points. In the event of a fall, the shock absorber deploys, absorbing energy and reducing the impact force on the anchor point to less than 4 kN. The total length following the full deployment of the shock absorber is 100 cm. Thanks to its minimal weight of less than 50 g, the G-SCREAMER is only negligibly heavier than a conventional quickdraw sling while still offering a major safety reserve when attached to a harness. As an additional innovative use, when combined with rope clamps pursuant to EN 567, the G-SCREAMER fulfills the dynamic requirements established in EN 15151-1 (braking devices with manually assisted locking) so as to enable belaying with rope clamps. This combination vastly reduces the probability of rope damage if the follower falls.

The G-SCREAMER was developed together with Simon Gietl.

 

Features:

  • HMPE sling with integrated, compact shock absorber – developed with Simon Gietl
  • Areas of use: alpine, big wall, and ice climbing with questionable anchor points
  • Reduces the dynamic impact force on the anchor point to less than 4 kN
  • 3 kN static response force
  • With a weight of less than 50 g, only negligibly heavier than a conventional quickdraw sling
  • Braking distance 85 cm (total deployed length: 100 cm)
  • The combination of a G-SCREAMER and rope clamp pursuant to EN 567 fulfills the dynamic requirements established in EN 15151-1 (braking device with manually assisted locking) and can therefore be used to belay a follower
  • Must not be used to substitute a via ferrata lanyard

Edelrid Technologies:

Fair Wear

We believe that textiles should be produced under conditions that provide the people who make them with a safe and respectful working environment. Unfortunately, even we are unable to exclusively manufacture at our company head office in Isny, where we can keep a direct eye on the working conditions. We therefore also collaborate with partner companies worldwide. We have been working together with the Fair Wear Foundation (FWF) since mid‑2021 to ensure fair working conditions — no matter where in the world!
