The DMM Pinto Spacer is a simple yet essential accessory for Pinto and Pinto Rig pulley systems. It is designed to prevent the side plates from compressing when using textile connectors such as slings, ropes, or webbing. As a result, it helps maintain correct alignment and ensures smooth, consistent pulley performance.
When textile components are loaded, they can squeeze the pulley cheeks together. However, this spacer supports the side plates and keeps the correct distance between them. Therefore, it reduces the risk of pinching and allows the pulley to function as intended under load.
The spacer also plays an important role in protecting your equipment. By maintaining proper spacing, it helps reduce unnecessary wear on both the pulley and the connecting textiles. Additionally, it improves rope flow and overall system efficiency, especially in demanding arborist and rigging setups.
Made from durable materials, the Pinto Spacer is built to withstand regular use in tough environments. At the same time, its compact and lightweight design ensures it adds minimal bulk to your system. Installation is quick and straightforward, so you can easily integrate it into your existing setup without complication.
Because of its reliability and ease of use, this spacer is ideal for arborists, climbers, and rigging professionals. Furthermore, it is particularly useful in systems where soft connections are preferred or required.
