SRTE Pulleys
Thankyou for selecting SRTE Pulleys to complement your system. We at SRTE are confident that you will be happy with your acquisition. If you have any questions or product suggestions relating to this or any other product in our range please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Centre at the above address. SRTE Pulleys and SRTE Specialised Pulleys were originally developed to fill the gap left by other manufacturers that did not make pulleys small and strong enough for personal equipment kits. From such small beginnings SRTE now has the largest range on the market through a combination of Single, Double or Triple Sheaves, Single or Double Becket (karabiner hole), Aluminium or Stainless steel Sheaves or Cheeks, Sintered/Brass, Ball or Roller Bearing. All SRTE Pulleys and SRTE Specialised Pulleys are permanently stamped with MAX Load and SWL at both the Pulley and Cam (if applicable). When using Specialised Pulleys in a System only use the SWL at the Cam. The SWL at the Pulley can only be used if Cam is disengaged. All SRTE Pulleys have swivel cheeks that extend beyond the surface of the rope to protect the rope from abrasion if pressed against an object. This Swivel Cheek also allows you to put the rope in the pulley at any point. Sheaves have sintered bronze bearings or ball bearings with stainless steel axles. Most SRTE Pulleys (excluding a few specialised pulleys which have been bolted and Loctite applied) are permanently riveted for your protection, deterring untrained personnel from tampering with them. By combining SRTE Pulleys and SRTE Specialised Pulleys together you can increase the mechanical advantage making your systems as unique and specialised as your situation. Alternately, SRTE have extrication kits available (i.e., VED [Rescuemate] and RED [Riggersmate]) which incorporate the Rescuemate or Riggersmate with Pulley(s), Ascender(s), Karabiner(s), Harness(es), Equipment Pack(s) and Rope (cut to required length). HOW TO USE YOUR SRTE PULLEYS AND SRTE SPECIALISED PULLEYS This instruction sheet is not a fully comprehensive instruction manual. Contact TRAC INTERNATIONAL on (61) 0418 674 678 for information on SRTE approved Training Courses. The purpose for using SRTE Pulleys and/or SRTE Specialised Pulleys will govern the type(s) of pulley(s) you use. Additional SRTE Pulleys may be used in to increase mechanical advantage.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you do not exceed the safe working load of any component in the system.

A BEFORE YOU START 1. Swivel the Pulleys Cheeks open. 2. Insert the Rope. 3. Swivel the Pulleys Cheeks closed. 4. Using a screw gate karabiner, lock all cheeks closed. This will ensure that the rope will not slip out while in use. 5. Attach the Pulley to the anchor point (i.e., tripod or a beam). 6. Warning Never use a swivel cheek pulley in the open position: all Karabiner Holes must be aligned and locked closed with a Screw Gate karabiner. For more detailed instructions on Specialised Pulleys refer to individual instruction sheets.

B MAINTENANCE 1. WASH in clean water (or Kerosene if gritty). The Cheeks, Sheaves and Cam will be stiff and hard to pivot if gritty. 2. After washing oil Axle, Bearing, Cam Spring and Catch Spring (Allow to stand so excess oil may drip out before being put back. into service). 3. Worn Teeth on Cam may interfere with proper operation of Auto Lock Pulleys. Return to the manufacturer for cam replacement. 4. Discard an SRTE Pulley or SRTE Specialised Pulley if the Karabiner Hole or Axle appears stressed. 5. Your Quality Systems may require items to be returned to the manufacturer for periodic service. SRTE requires Auto Lock Pulleys to be returned at least annually for service . Please contact our Customer Service staff before returning your SRTE Pulley or SRTE Specialised Pulley for service.

MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE (MA) Disadvantage and Advantage The following diagrams indicate the types of equipment required to obtain particular mechanical advantage. You can see that when operating the system (controlling the tail end of the rope) from the top, the last sheave only acts as a redirectional sheave and supports little load (this is called Disadvantage pulling with gravity); whereas, when operating the system (controlling the tail end of the rope) from the bottom, the last sheave supports the load increasing the mechanical advantage (this is called Advantage pulling against gravity). Although using a system which works in the Advantage increases your mechanical advantage it is not an efficient system for Belay, Retrieval, Self Belay or Self Retrieval when using Auto Locking Pulleys. SRTE recommends that you use Auto Lock Specialised Pulleys at the top of the system and a minimum of two people per operation, i.e., Operator and Worker for safety reasons

SRTE SPECIALISED PULLEYS Multiple Sheave Pulleys These pulleys were designed to be used to increase the mechanical advantage in systems. Double Ended Pulleys (Double Becket Pulleys) These pulleys were designed to be used as either part of a system or as a conventional pulley. The karabiner hole (becket) at the bottom of the pulley can be used for additional rigging, e.g., additional pulleys may be linked underneath. Short Cheek Pulleys These pulleys were designed to be used as either diversion sheaves or as conventional pulleys. Here, mallion rapides maybe used instead of karabiners to cut down on slack. Long Cheek Pulleys These pulleys were designed to be used as either a jockey wheels or as conventional pulleys. Here, the karabiner hole within the cheek (centre of cheek) can be used for additional rigging, e.g., additional pulleys may be linked underneath to control the speed or direction of the pulley, or to act as a backup anchor point for the load. Wide Sheave Pulleys These pulleys were designed to be used as either large rope pulleys or as conventional pulleys, e.g., with 16mm+, kernmantle or three strand, synthetic or natural material. Knot Passing Pulleys These pulleys were designed to be used as either knot passing pulleys, large rope pulleys or conventional pulleys. These are similar to wide sheave pulleys; however, they have extra karabiner holes for additional rigging and they have longer cheeks. Static Pulleys (Friction Pulleys) These pulleys were designed to be used as belay devices only. Although not a true pulley, static pulleys (belay pulleys) increase the friction between the operator and the worker giving the operator more control. Sport or industrial versions are available with or without auto braking. They are usually used as the secondary safety device. Rollers (Edge and Ground Rollers) These pulleys were designed as a rope protector on edges on both man-made (buildings, etc.) and natural surfaces (cliffs, etc.). Ideally, a minimum of two bays of rollers should be used over an edge. Rollers are often stereotyped for edges only, whereas they can be used in the same fashion as wide sheave pulleys to keep multiple lines from tangling. For safety reasons, rollers should be anchored to prevent movement. Prusik Minding Pulleys These pulleys were designed to be used either as a prusik minding pulley or as a conventional pulley. The prusik knots act as a brake, preventing the load from falling between hauling operations. Rescuemates These pulleys were designed to be used either as auto lock pulleys or as conventional pulleys. They support the load between hauling operations by combining an ascender cam with a pulley sheave. They are similar to prusik minding pulleys; however, rather than relying on the prusik knot, the cam acts as the brake. Riggersmates These pulleys were designed to be used either as auto lock pulleys or as conventional pulleys. They arrest a load (worker) if anything happens to either the operator or the worker they are activated by excessive speed. They are similar to Rescuemates; however, they incorporate a fall arrest system and comes standard as a triple block. By simply adding one additional SRTE Pulley a mechanical advantage 7:1 is easily achieved without impinging on head clearance in a tripod situation. Tyrolean Sheaves (Flying Fox Pulleys) These pulleys were designed to be used as tyrolean sheaves; some models may also be used as conventional pulleys preventing your lines from tangling. These pulleys have extra karabiners holes for additional rigging, e.g., to control the speed and/or direction of the pulley, to act as a backup anchor point for the load. PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS AND TEST DATA Construction Only the highest grade of stainless steel and extruded aluminium are used. SRTE Pulleys will not twist or damage the rope in any way under normal use, giving your rope a much longer life. Refer to individual pulley notes for specifications. Test Data 11mm Kinnears rope was threaded through the sheave and a karabiner inserted into the karabiner hole (becket). The load was gradually increased until the unit failed. Comments The karabiner hole failed in all instances. The sheave and axle were still in working order. Refer to individual pulley notes for results. Note Pulleys have been slightly under-rated for your added safety. Do not load any pulley more than is marked. The listed SWL factors are for lifting equipment (5:1 ratio) when lifting people, halve the marked figures (10:1 ratio). All cheeks are stamped with Max Load and SWL. All pulleys have swivel cheeks and sintered bearings. All pulleys can be made to order with ball bearings, brass bush or roller bearing. All single sheave pulleys can be fixed to be used as static pulleys Model Rescuemate RM1A RM12A RM22A Riggersmate RR1A 3 2 x Aluminium 1 x Stainless Steel with Stainless Steel Cam 2 Aluminium 60mm 80mm 49mm 69mm 11mm 300mm 95mm 95mm 1 2 2 Aluminium with 2 Stainless Steel Cam Aluminium with 2 Stainless Steel Cam Aluminium with 2 Stainless Steel Cam Aluminium Aluminium Aluminium 60mm 60mm 60mm 49mm 49mm 49mm 13mm 13mm 11mm 260mm 260mm 260mm 80mm 80mm 80mm 40mm 60mm 60mm No. of Sheaves Material of Sheaves No. of Beckets Material of Cheeks Outer diam. of Sheaves Inner diam. of Sheaves Rope Size Length Width Thickness
