I thought it worked great at first, although I did notice a bit of sponge at the top of the pedal.
I did not block the movement of the clutch fork with a block or whatever. When I initially bled my line, I did the "normal 2 person" method where one's on the pedal and one's on the bleeder. I will share some insight into an issue I had bleeding the clutch line. I will say this, pedal adjustment and proper clutch line bleeding are crucial. I have zero lockouts beating on it now with the TSP1+.
The 13 mm CLUTCH is compatible with 12.5 – 13 mm rope and certified to NFPA 1983 General Use and ANSI standards.I just crossed the milage threshold this past weekend and have been meaning to update this thread. It’s the only device for 10.5 – 11 mm rope that carries all these certifications. The 11 mm CLUTCH is compatible with 10.5 – 11 mm rope and certified to NFPA 1983 General Use, ANSI, and EN standards. The 11 mm CLUTCH and CMC’s G11™ Lifeline can be used together to build NFPA G-Rated systems using 11mm rope, saving space and reducing weight. Replaces 8 pieces of traditional equipment: pulley, rescue rack, anchor plate, load release strap, prusik cord, and 3 carabiners. Allows main and belay lines to be mirrored, twin-tensioned, or nested in Double CLUTCH technique (handles controlled by single operator). Instantly transitions between hauling and lowering or ascent and descent without having to transfer the load. Combines the key features of personal descenders and load management devices: reducing equipment training and cost. Moves seamlessly between anchor-based systems and personal use: reducing gear cache volume and weight. Delivers up to 38% higher efficiency in hauling and ascending than a cam-style device: reducing changeovers.
Single wearable tool for efficient hauling, controlled lowering, smooth personal descent, easy ascending, belaying, and Twin Tension Rope Systems.
It moves seamlessly between anchor-based systems and personal use, offering unmatched versatility for the rope technician. Suited to a multitude of rigging operations, the CLUTCH delivers efficient operation, ease of use, and optimal control. This multi-purpose device was designed and engineered in collaboration by two companies with a collective 90 year history in rope management under heavy loads: CMC, a company with roots in rescue and rope access, and Harken Industrial, a manufacturing company with roots in high performance sailing. Introducing the all-new CLUTCH, the latest evolution in rescue and rope access hardware that enables the technical rope professional to do more with less. *This product does not qualify for any discounts or promotions and carries long lead times*
