About Tylaska
Tylaska's background is high-performance sailing hardware, where light weight and smooth rope running matter. That same hardware has found a place in tree work, especially low-friction rings used as redirects, in false crotch setups and in some climbing and rigging systems.
A low-friction ring is not a pulley, so expect more friction and heat than a sheave would give, and size it to the rope diameter and loads you plan for. Check the rating for your use, inspect for grooves or burrs, and follow the manufacturer's information. Any gear that holds a person must meet the applicable standard (ANSI Z133 and the manufacturer's instructions), be inspected before each use, and be used by trained climbers.
