Harken – Wingman

/// Harken

Overview

Harken’s new Wingman applies new design and technology to achieve more from a compact personal mechanical advantage system. Wingman’s innovative design means it’s among the first offerings in this category that achieve internal progress capture mechanically within the unit rather than relying on prussiks to achieve that externally. Wingman combines a ratcheting sheave to stop the rope with a composite handle or wing the operator can open and close under load for a well-modulated ‘fine-tuned’ release. Under full load even with the sheaves pulled completely together, the system may be released quite easily–with full control using one hand on the wing and the other tending the line. These revolutionary features combined with ball bearings within the sheaves and the maximizes efficiency for raising and lowering loads of up to 681lbs. It may be configured as a 4:1 or 5:1 purchase system. Wingman is ideal for pick- offs, adjustable directionals, work positioning, and much more. The unmatched ease of use and the industry leading compact form factor makes Wingman a simple tool you will always want at your side.

The Wingman 3M comes with a bag.

The Wingman 9M and 15M do not come with a bag. For the Wingman 15M, we recommend the 15L PETZL Bucket, as it fits the 250ft of cord and is the ideal size for the product.
