Buckingham Friction Savers

BUCKINGHAM Steel Ring Friction Saver

Buckingham Friction savers reduce premature wear on your climbing line, and eliminates damage to tree limbs caused by excess friction. Friction savers are "load rated", offering superior insurance for your safety.
The use of a friction saver minimises friction when working from different positions in the tree, and can be wrapped around a stem for use as a false crotch where no natural crotch exists.
By using your throw line and throw ball, the friction saver can quickly be placed in the crotch of a tree and climbing line installed, all from standing on the ground. To remove it simply tie a figure eight knot in your line and pull it through the large ring first. The knot will stop at the small ring bringing your friction saver to the ground.
