Notch Equipment Six Pack Lowering Device

The Notch Equipment Six Pack Lowering Device is a high-performance basal rigging device built for arborists who need controlled, efficient lowering of heavy timber in demanding rigging scenarios. Designed in collaboration with professional arborist Terry Banyard, the Six Pack brings advanced friction management to the base of the tree, giving ground crews more control while climbers rig and lower sections from above.

Featuring six friction bollards, dual rope capability and over ten friction configurations, the Notch Six Pack is designed to handle complex rigging setups with confidence. Built from carbon steel and finished with a proprietary Super Friction Coating, it delivers smooth rope control, reduced rope wear and dependable performance for professional tree rigging operations.

Designed for Advanced Tree Rigging

The Notch Six Pack is engineered to give arborists greater friction control at the base of the rigging system, helping ground crews manage loads more smoothly and predictably. This makes it especially effective for lowering large timber, managing dynamic loads and building more controlled rigging systems for technical dismantling work.

Friction Management, Rope Control and Lowering Performance

With six friction bollards and the ability to run two rigging ropes simultaneously, the Six Pack offers exceptional versatility across a wide range of rigging setups. The multiple friction pathways allow crews to fine-tune resistance based on rope size, load weight and lowering technique, helping achieve smoother control while reducing shock loading and unnecessary effort at the base of the tree.

Construction, Durability and Practical Use

Manufactured from carbon steel and finished with a proprietary Super Friction Coating, the Notch Six Pack is built to withstand repeated professional use while helping reduce rope wear during operation. The exit fairleads allow the rope to be locked under load for additional safety and control in more technical scenarios. Setup is straightforward with the included ratchet strap system, allowing the device to be anchored securely at the base of the tree.
