Protect your rope with tough #4 duck canvas and a layer of Shelter-Rite vinyl. The CMC ProSeries Edge Guard closes with a two-inch strip of hook-and-loop. A web loop lets you anchor the Edge Guard to keep it in place. (We do not use grommets as a moving rope can abrade a grommet enough to create a sharp edge.) Use an Edge Guard to protect your anchor ropes and web as well as your rescue ropes. Color: Black.

Super slick, space-age material not only protects your rope from sharp or rough edges, but also reduces friction. Lighter weight and easier to transport than edge rollers or similar devices, the Ultra-Pro conforms to the edge, but prevents sharp bends in the rope. The Ultra-Pro is available in two sizes: the Ultra-Pro 2 is for two ropes, and the Ultra-Pro 4 accepts four ropes. Carabiner holes in all four corners allow the Ultra-Pro to be tied off for safety or linked together for extended protection. Made in the USA. Patent pending.

IBeams in the industrial setting provide a challenge for effective edge protection. Edge rollers are difficult to tie securely and rope guards and pads are not able to reduce a ninety-degree bend. Designed by Scott Haverty of Safety Training and Rescue LLC, the Industrial Edger installs quickly to protect against sharp surfaces and eliminates tight bends. It is also an excellent way to protect ropes or anchor slings from roadside guardrails. Made of anodized aluminum. Weight: 1 lb. 4 oz. Color: Red.
