FTC Mini-Cylindre HR 2.1 Rigging Device

The FTC Mini-Cylindre HR 2.1 is a highly efficient, easy-to-install friction device designed for controlled rigging in professional tree care. Constructed entirely from aluminium, it manages friction smoothly without excessive heat build-up, helping protect your rigging ropes from glazing or burning during lowering operations.

Designed for precision and stability, the Mini-Cylindre offers a reliable solution for lowering medium-sized branches and timber sections. Its symmetrical design allows the ground crew to work comfortably from either side of the stem, while multiple fairleads ensure clean, consistent rope management for safe and predictable control.

The device features six rubber silent blocks to stabilise the system and protect the tree during load. Delivered complete with a long 9 m strap and its own transport box, the Mini-Cylindre HR 2.1 is ready to deploy straight out of the packaging for quick, efficient rigging setup.

Key Features

  • All-aluminium construction prevents excessive heat build-up on rigging ropes
  • Round upper ring for smooth reeving of the rigging line
  • Two fairleads to organise wraps and prevent overlapping
  • Additional fairlead beneath the cylinder for fine-tuned, precise rigging
  • Six rubber silent blocks provide stability and tree protection under load
  • Symmetrical design allows ground crew to operate from either side
  • Delivered with strap and protective transport box for quick deployment
  • Suitable for medium-size rigging operations in arboriculture

Spare Parts & Accessories

  • FTC/MCC-MNC-SB50/C – MICRO- and MINI-CYLINDRE spare ratchet strap
  • FTC/MNC-PC – MINI-CYLINDRE rubber silent block
  • FTC/MNC-CT – MINI-CYLINDRE transport box
  • FTC/AAB – Closing pins for MINI-/MICRO-CYLINDRE (unit)

FAQs

What is the FTC Mini-Cylindre HR 2.1 used for?

It is a friction device used to control the lowering of branches and timber during arborist rigging operations, especially medium-load situations.

Does the aluminium body cause excessive heat on the rope?

No. The all-aluminium build dissipates heat efficiently, preventing rope glazing or burning under normal use.

What rope diameter is compatible?

The Mini-Cylindre HR 2.1 accepts rigging ropes up to 16 mm in diameter.

How does it stay stable on the tree?

Six rubber silent blocks keep the device stable on the stem, absorbing movement and reducing trunk damage under load.

Is it suitable for professional arborists?

Yes. Its robust construction, high WLL, and excellent control make it suitable for daily rigging operations in professional tree care.

What comes included?

The device is supplied with a 9 m strap and its own transport/storage box.
