Product information & specifications
ISC MH285 REFLEX Mechanical Hitch
Designed for UK arborists and rope-access professionals looking for a mid-line attachable hitch with precise friction control and rescue-capable certification. The ISC MH285 REFLEX allows rope to be helically wound into its link system rather than pulled through, letting you attach mid-line without cutting rope termination labels — perfect for rigging, SRT/MRT and complex canopy manoeuvres. CE Certified to EN 12841, on EN 1891-A ø11-13mm Rope, rescue loads up to 200 kg, the REFLEX combines simplicity and performance in one compact device.
Key Features & Benefits
- Mid-line attachment capability: Insert rope into the link system rather than threading the entire length, preserving rope labelling and traceability.
- Helical winding link system with safety-lock swing-frame
- Rescue load rated to 200 kg
- Certified for 11-13 mm EN 1891-A rope
- Removable & replaceable swivel eye
