The Vortex

The Vortex Edge Management System is designed for use in the varying sizes & depths of steel & composite walkway grating & grid-mesh found on industrial & commercial work sites.

The Vortex has been designed for use with static & dynamic nylon rope as a physical barrier to assist in the protection of life supporting rope system from coming into contact with the sharp edges of steel & composite grating during normal use.

In the relative high risk environment of Industrial Rope Access & Rope Rescue, all ropes shall be rigged in such a way so as to avoid contact with potential hot, sharp or abrasive surfaces that threaten the integrity of the life supporting rope.

• Wash The Vortex with warm soap & water and keep away from sources of high heat and chemical contamination.
• The Vortex and all of its parts shall never be considered, or used as an anchoring device. Only add loads of 150kG or less to ropes rigged through the Vortex. Be sure to rest The Vortex against the ``channel`` or `` bar`` in the direction of the pull of the anchors and always inspect the gratings suitability for the rigging application.
• The Vortex is light to carry on your harness, thus limiting the affects of fatigue in the physically demanding work arenas of Rope Access & Rescue .
