ART SpiderJack 2.1 Rope Control Device
The ART SpiderJack 2.1 is a multifunctional, self-blocking rope securing device designed for use with running double rope systems. Built for experienced arborists and professional tree climbers, it enables dynamic movement, smooth rope control and efficient climbing with less effort when used with the correct technique and regular practice.
Designed for ropes from 11mm to 13mm in accordance with EN 1891, the SpiderJack 2.1 provides extremely smooth rope running, precise speed control and compact harness connection using a single karabiner. Its ergonomic release handle, thumb brake and efficient rope feed make it a highly responsive device for skilled climbers working in the canopy.
Key Features
- ART SpiderJack 2.1 multifunctional rope securing device
- Designed for running double rope climbing systems
- Self-blocking function for controlled climbing and positioning
- Suitable for EN 1891 ropes from 11mm to 13mm
- No need to change rope grab for ropes between 11mm and 13mm
- Ready for use with a single karabiner
- Compact system with efficient overlap
- Extremely smooth rope running, even under load
- Allows two-handed or single-handed shortening and roping up
- Ergonomic release handle with internal rope guide groove
- Thumb brake for precise rope speed control

Dynamic Double Rope Climbing
The SpiderJack 2.1 is designed for climbers using running double rope systems who want smoother, more dynamic movement through the tree. With the right training and practice, it allows efficient positioning, rope shortening and controlled descent.
11–13mm Rope Compatibility
Unlike some mechanical climbing devices, the SpiderJack 2.1 does not require a change of rope grab when moving between compatible ropes from 11mm to 13mm diameter.
Single Karabiner Connection
The SpiderJack 2.1 is ready for use with one karabiner, which connects the device to the harness and anchors the upright rope eye. This keeps the system compact and efficient.
Smooth Rope Running Under Load
When the running rope is pulled from above the device, the SpiderJack turns from its blocking position towards the rope. This supports smooth rope movement, even when loaded and when there is little rope weight beneath the device.
Ergonomic Release Handle
The ergonomic release handle includes an internal guide groove for redirecting slack rope. This helps prevent rope friction in the user’s hand and supports smoother operation during climbing.
Precise Thumb Brake Control
The unique thumb brake allows precise rope speed control. The brake pad is made from pock wood, chosen for its excellent friction properties, heat resistance and long-lasting performance.
Important Use Notice
The ART SpiderJack 2.1 does not have a panic safety feature. Users must strictly follow the manufacturer’s manual, especially during training and the learning phase. This device is best suited to trained and experienced climbers.
Climbing Tip
When using the SpiderJack, the harness should be attached to the roping-up eye at a low point. The lower the SpiderJack is positioned beneath the load, the longer and more effective each arm pull becomes.
