Product information & specifications
Rock Exotica P4 HYDRA Triple Attachment Pulley
Upgrade your climbing system with the Rock Exotica P4 HYDRA — a compact, triple-attachment pulley that combines a pulley, rigging plate and swivel in one streamlined piece of kit. Built for professional arborists and tree climbers, the HYDRA is engineered for saddle bridge use, ascent systems, redirects and advanced lanyard configurations where smooth rope management and multi-connection flexibility matter.
The HYDRA’s swivel-top connection allows the unit to rotate naturally, helping to reduce line twist when used as a rolling attachment point on your rope bridge. Three connection points are lined with rubber o-rings to help hold carabiners snugly, reducing movement and helping prevent dangerous cross-loading. The pulley sheave runs on a high-efficiency bearing for ultra-smooth operation, while the pulley body is machined from solid aluminium for excellent strength-to-weight performance.
Key Features
- Triple attachment pulley with swivel-top connection for climbing systems
- Combines pulley + rigging plate + swivel in one compact unit
- Ideal for saddle bridge use, ascent systems, lanyard systems and redirects
- Helps reduce climbing line twist when used as a rolling attachment point
- Rubber o-ring lined connection points help hold carabiners snugly to reduce cross-loading risk
- High-efficiency bearing sheave for smooth, low-friction rope travel
