Harkens Riggers 500 Winch
The Harken Riggers Winch provides the user with a lightweight, CE certified, portable winch mounted to a robust adapter plate. The 2-speed 500 model is lightweight and weighs just 7 kg (15.4 lb). Its maximum rated load of 490 kg (1,101 lb) maximizes operator pulling power by up to 40 times. Multiple mounting options provide versatility when working in challenging or remote environments. The pigtail line lead allows the rope to be installed without feeding the end of the line through with no maximum line length and ensures correct alignment and loading of the winch for maximum efficiency. Stainless steel load-carrying gears and pins for strength and durability. The unique drum design maximizes grip on the rope. Includes a universal mounting plate, 25 cm (10 in) winch handle, and Harken 40.2 winch model.
AZORP Kit (Arizona Omni Rigging Pod)
The newest companion to the Arizona Vortex, the AZORP (Arizona Omni Rigging Pod) allows even greater versatility to the AZV system. The AZORP was developed by Reed Thorne and has undergone extensive testing and rigging applications with Ropes That Rescue around the world. This two-in-one rigging pod is a welcome addition to the AZV lineup and combines the versatility of having two component halves that can be used in combination, or separately, at different positions on the inner or outer AZV legs. Machined from one solid block of T-6 aluminum, it delivers superior strength with a sleek and simple design without using welds. The inner and outer AZORP pods can also be used together as a two-flange rigging pod in combination with an AZV leg compression member.
The AZORP Storage Bag features a quick-draw closure and an external carabiner loop. The main compartment has a separate sewn-in pocket to hold the AZORP quick pins. Constructed of tough, water-resistant 1,000-denier CORDURA® nylon.
Anchor Plate
A Classic CMC Innovation
A CMC original design that has withstood the test of time, our Anchor Plates keep the carabiners holding the different parts of your rescue system from jamming together. The hardware becomes easier to see, making safety checks more accurate. It can also keep you from clipping a carabiner into the wrong loop of the anchor web. For anchor systems, it makes an excellent collection point. We use the Anchor Plate in CMC Rope Rescue classes, which allows our students to set up systems faster with fewer mistakes. Hole diameters: small – 7/8 in (22 mm), large – 2 in (51 mm).
Micro-Anchor Plate
When weight and size are an issue, such as in mountain rescue and special operations packs, river rescue gear bags, or rope access work, the ultra-compact, light, anodized aluminum Micro-Anchor Plate is the right choice. The large hole acts as a collection point for multi-point anchors. The small holes keep carabiners separated, making them easier to work with when the system is loaded, and the oblong shape makes inserting carabiners easier and quicker. Hole diameters: small – 5/8 in (16 mm), large – 1 in (25 mm).
Anchor Strap
Anchor straps have a tough job, and see a lot of wear and tear. Over the years, we’ve learned that cuts and abrasion are the greatest threats to their safety and service life. To dramatically increase both, our Anchor Straps now feature two layers of the same durable mil-spec, resin-coated nylon web. Sewn by our highly skilled workers who make our rescue harnesses, our Anchor Straps feature forged steel D-rings individually proof loaded and sized for easy choker (girth-hitch) configuration when desired. Sewn-on web keeper allows for improved organization when stowed. Use our sized Anchor Strap Sleeves for added edge and abrasion protection.
Note: We recommend using a Delta Quick Link connector (part #382121) to prevent possible tri-axile loading of a carabiner when used in a basket configuration.
Cobra-D Uniform Rappel Belt
Designed for Emergency Rappel
In a class by itself, CMC Rescue offers the only NFPA Certified Uniform Rappel Belt available. Designed for everyday wear but with the performance needed for an emergency rappel or belay. Standard uniform wear for fire fighters, search and rescue, and SWAT personnel, the belt is constructed to the same exacting standards as our harness line and is the only certified uniform belt available. The belt uses 1-3/4” web that fastens securely without requiring any hook-and-loop material. The AustriAlpin D-ring COBRA® buckle is manufactured from 7075 aluminum alloy and features a built-in stainless steel D-ring (Buckle:18 kN / 4,000 lbf MBS, D-ring: 22 kN / 5,000 lbf MBS, straight pull). The buckle requires a two finger release and will not open when loaded. Included web keeper secures excess web at tail end of belt. Adjustable, one size fits most.
Note: This belt is not intended as a substitute for a harness.

About Our Selection of Books
We have compiled an outstanding selection of books on rescue. However, there is no substitute for proper training and time in the field for gaining the skills needed to provide safe and effective emergency assistance.
Please Note: CMC Rescue recognizes that there are many different techniques in rescue. While our book selection reflects the leading authorities and most popular texts, as with all publications, recent developments in equipment and practices may not be included.
Escape Belts
A multipurpose belt for carrying tools that doubles as an NFPA escape belt, our Fire Escape Belt is manufactured of fire-resistant, two-inch Kevlar brand fiber web. The Escape model is constructed of the same mil-spec nylon web used in our harnesses. The snap and V-ring closure is easy to use even with gloved hands.
