EXO AP HOOK
®
Personal escape system with anchor hook
EXO AP HOOK is a personal escape system with anchor hook adapted for locations where
the possibility of finding an anchor point is uncertain. It has a self-braking system with anti-
panic function for quickly moving horizontally, climbing through a window and controlling and
stopping a descent. If the user pulls too hard on the handle, the anti-panic function brakes and
stops the descent automatically. EXO AP HOOK also includes a rope that resists wear and high
temperatures, an Am'D connector with CAPTIV positioning bar, as well as a bag for transporting
and attaching the system directly to the harness. Other rope lengths and other types of
connectors (EASHOOK...) available by special order.
If the user pulls too hard on the
handle, the anti-panic function

is mandatory.
