BMS Micro Rack

The BMS MICRO-RACK was originally designed for the caving community and has become the device of choice for both expedition and recreational cavers in the US. These closed frame racks offer increased strength and at the same time are almost one half the size of conventional open frame racks. The bars are fabricated from extra-heavy wall stainless steel tubing which yields unequaled resistance to abrasion. Under normal conditions they should supply a lifetime of use. Supplied with an extended top bar with pin (hyper-bar) the BMS Micro-Rack not only increases options for control of descent but also facilitates simple lock offs. The transition from locked off to descent or lower is smooth and easy.

BMS Micro-Racks are available in two frame lengths to accomodate a wide range of rope sizes and loads. With a second inverted hyper-bar below the top hyper-bar this allows the user to take an additional wrap around the hyper-bars to further increase the load handling abilities of these devices. Using the second hyperbar model has been widely accepted in the Fire and Search & Rescue communities as providing a compact and safe alternative to traditional 6 bar open frame racks.
