HOW TO USE THE WIRE STROP

July 17 2023

Here's a quick video outlining the three ways a WIRE STROP anchor strap can be used, and how to make the right choice based on the situation.

WIRE STROP is an anchor strap made of 6.5 mm diameter galvanized steel with two terminations of different sizes. It offers several configurations for setting up an anchor: directly to an anchor point or around a suitable structure. The plastic sleeve helps keep the connector in position and facilitates clipping. It is available in five lengths (50, 100, 150, 200 and 300 cm).

 

In this video, Keith Luscinski with the Petzl Technical Institute will cover how to use Petzl's wire anchor sling, the EN- and ANSI-certified WIRE STROP. The WIRE STROP can be used in three configurations: end to end, a choker hitch, and a basket hitch. Let's take a look at the proper configuration for each of these setups.
