PUS34-US Patriot Pulley for Tripods, Made in USA
The Frontline PUS34-US is a Patriot pulley for confined space tripods, made in the USA: it mounts at the tripod head and turns a winch or retrieval line down into the opening so the cable runs cleanly and at the right angle to the worker.
A small but essential part of the confined space rigging, it pairs with the Frontline MEGApod tripods and the RAW50-US winch to complete the lifting path. Made in the USA as part of the Patriot line, conforming to OSHA 1910.146 and ANSI Z359 within the retrieval system.
