Product Description
Product Features
- Lightweight and high-performance shock absorber designed for via ferrata, suitable for users weighing 40 kg to 120 kg (with equipment).
- Technical materials: aluminum alloy, HMPE fibers, polyester, and TPU for a combination of strength and lightness.
- Tested safety system: elastic arms subjected to 50,000 cycles and a central eye with a resistance of 12 kN for resting.
- Moisture protection: very low water absorption reducing shock force increase on wet ground.
- Compact and practical design: strap folded in a hook-and-loop case with shock absorber activation indicator.
Construction and Materials
The Phario Lite set uses a mix of materials optimized for weight and durability: aluminum alloy (56%), HMPE (20%), PES (20%), TPU (3%), and stainless steel (1%). The 15 mm connection eye is made of HMPE fibers covered with polyester for a robust attachment and better wear resistance.
Performance and Safety
The 15 mm asymmetrical elastic arms prevent the risk of limb strangulation and have been tested for 50,000 stretches to ensure lasting elasticity. The central ring allows for resting and has a certified resistance of 12 kN.
Behavior in Wet Conditions
Thanks to the very low water absorption of the materials, the Phario Lite minimizes the increase in impact force in case of a fall on wet ground, thus contributing to increased safety in rainy weather or on wet rocks.
Ergonomics and Usability
The shock absorber strap is folded in a compact hook-and-loop packaging to protect the absorber from external influences. The ergonomic Keylock PALM carabiners with wear indicator facilitate handling for both adults and children.
Dimensions and Key Specifications
After attachment to the harness, the kit length is 85 cm, the maximum extension reaches 130 cm (longest arm), and the maximum braking length in case of extreme deployment is 170 cm. Total weight with carabiners: approximately 400 g.
