XTX Powerclutch

Drawing on experience in mechanical and textile product design, the new XTX Softgrip Clutch uses new technology and refines its application to offer mid load rope holding in a lightweight, compact device.

Using an innovative new braided 'softgrip' technology to engage and hold a loaded rope, the XTX benefits from being 'kind' to the rope cover with a gentle and controlled release by an integrated retractable toggle, with innovative push button activation ensuring finger-tip on/off control.

  • Ultra-lightweight mid-load rope holding
  • Optimised SOFTGRIP braid with high-performance braid anchor technology
  • Gentle on rope covers - increase the lifecycle of your ropes
  • Neat, retracting toggle for fingertip control of clutching power
  • Controlled and consistent release across full range of loads
  • Push-button clutch activation with lock-open indicator
  • Full enclosed body protects against accidental release
  • Small footprint and very low profile with no handle rotation space required
  • Simple, versatile installation - two fasteners for deck, bulkhead, rig or tunnel mounting
  • Remote release capability
  • Easy set-up, no performance tuning required
  • On-deck access for cleaning or replacing SOFTGRIP diameter changes
