To prevent back feeding during rope solo climbing this rope keeper helps.
These keepers are 3D printed with TPU.
It will keep the rope in place without having to make knots ore fumbling around with elastic bands.
In case of a fall the elastic TPU material will release the rope without damaging the rope or the keeper.
TPU is a tough flexibel 3D printing material the surface is a bit stringy since this a hard to print material. This creates even better friction/ holding power for the rope. Looks may be deceiving they work!
There are different designs
Original grommet Matty Skinner with SS ball
Verticallife lightweight version
Verticallife “boot” with SS ball
Placing them on the karabiners can be a bit of a struggle advice: use some disinfection handheld cleaning alcohol to slide them on. Use special karabiners to keep them on when they are finally in place.
Since TPU print is a hard to control process not all keepers will have the same finish and looks but the do work!
