Fusion Optimus Manual Rope Grab

Fusion Optimus Manual Rope Grab – Anti-Panic Design

The Fusion Optimus is a manual rope grab engineered for reliable positioning and controlled movement on 5/8" rope. Unlike automatic rope grabs, this manual model stays "parked" in place until intentionally moved by the user—making it an excellent choice for climbing, sloped access, and rooftop work. Often referred to as an "anti-panic" rope grab, it offers smooth performance without accidental slippage under tension.
