Destruction!

[JAA]

My techy knowledge of kit isn’t a patch on some people, however I do always like a video of things being broken to see what happens!

(Turns out I can’t do links but their Facebook page has some good destruction testing videos of some Petzl hardware. The omni triact at 27kn goes an interesting shape and a rack stretches a lot up to 16.77Kn before a bar snaps with 10mm rope)

I have never used Facebook so can't comment on links there, but for the non Facebookers www.youtube.com/@HowNOT2 is a useful link, under Videos the channel has playlists, so you can look for bolt buster or caving. A lot of the break test falls inside climbing playlist even for Maillons/Quick links or caving related kit
