Product of the Day: Petzl’s Personal Escape System with Anchor Hook

The EXO AP HOOK is a personal escape system with HOOK anchor hook adapted for locations where the possibility of finding an anchor point is uncertain. The original EXO descender was designed in collaboration with the FDNY to create a safe and reliable solution for rapid egress from a multi-story structure. The updated EXO AP is smaller, lighter, and features an anti-panic function to reduce the risk of overspeeding a descent during a bailout emergency. This device allows for easy horizontal movement, 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. The EXO AP HOOK also includes an aramid fiber 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.
