Details
The Scarab® represents five years of research and testing by Rick Lipke and the design team at Conterra. It was born out of the need for a small, simple device that could easily control heavy rescue loads, as well as excel at pick offs, twin rope systems and other general rescue techniques. The Scarab® does all this and more.
With two models available, the Scarab® is the perfect choice for both Fire/Rescue and backcountry rescue environments.
