REFLEX Mechanical Hitch Mid-Line Attachable Friction Device for SRT & MRS

The REFLEX Mechanical Hitch brings a major upgrade to modern climbing systems by combining the familiar feel of a hitch-controlled descent with the precision and consistency of a mechanical deviceand its fully mid-line attachable. No more dragging an entire rope through your device during setup, changeovers, or limb passing.

With its swing-frame body, L-shaped friction links, and mid-line loading design, the REFLEX gives climbers the ability to quickly install or remove the rope at any point in the climbperfect for bulky sewn terminations, traceability labels, and fast canopy transitions. Whether using SRT or MRS, the REFLEX delivers smooth friction control without needing a Rope Wrench or extra friction hardware.

Key Features

• Mid-Line Attachable Design Install or remove the rope without pulling the full length through the device.
• Precision Mechanical Friction Gradual, predictable friction release similar to a hitch cord but with consistent mechanical performance.
• Helical Rope Path Rope is wound into the L-shaped links rather than threaded through, making installation fast and intuitive.
• Captive Top Link Integrated latch keeps the rope securely seated during use.
• Works for SRT and MRS Provides dependable friction control without extra devices; ideal for compact, simplified climbing systems.
• Rescue-Capable Rated for 200 kg rescue loads with no additional friction required.
• Versatile Setup Options Dedicated apertures for use with the APEX & FLEX Tether for friction tuning and transitions.
• Self-Tending for Ascent Low-friction design with multiple towing points for smooth upward movement.

Removable & Replaceable Swivel

• Quick Disconnect Swivel-eye detaches through a deliberate sequence of actions, letting you unclip for lunch breaks or gear runs without tearing down your whole system.
• Dual-Karabiner Compatible Eye is shaped to accept two carabiners, or two bridge ropes can be threaded directly through for a compact setup.
• Easy Replacement Swap the swivel when it wears out without replacing the entire device.

Why Mid-Line Attachment Matters

• No need to cut off bulky rope labels or terminations
• Faster limb passing, redirects, and changeovers
• Perfect for canopy work where efficiency is everything
• Never waste time feeding 150+ through your device again
