Friction Management Devices

Friction management is important both to protect trees and extend the life of the climbing rope and equipment used by tree care professionals. You will find that SherrillTree's collection of Friction Savers by Caterpillar, ArborMaster, MagBloc, A.R.T. and Teufelberger are the best the industry has to offer. The days of leaving a trail of rope-burned trees and tree-burned ropes is long behind us.
