They are made from 3K carbon fibre and available in 4.5m and 8.5m lengths. The pole clamps are user adjustable and can be replaced if damaged. The poles have a 3K carbon finish which reduced the amount of vibration transmitted up the shaft to ensure a quiet and smooth use.

The Helix Tactical poles are compatible with REBS hooks fitted with the PIGG system, which allows the pin to be pulled and the PIGG release will let go of the pole, leaving behind a clean anchor. They are also compatible with various other hook designs which used 4-5mm rods and as each one has a conical internal bore makes “fishing” to recover the hooks much easier.

Wednesday, April 4th, 2018

The Revolver Rig is an evolution of our innovative Revolver carabiner and adds industrial strength and performance to give an incredibly versatile connector that can be used in any running rope system to increase efficiency.

The Revolver Rig comes into its own when flexibility and efficiency are paramount, and will excel in improvised rescues, compact mechanical advantage systems and reducing friction in rigging featuring running ropes.  The system is both lightweight and compact.

The system is perfect for lowering and raising scenarios.  Moving equipment such as weapon systems and ammunition in mountainous or urban environments becomes far easier with our system.

It is available with both single and double sheaves that run on high efficiency bearings; this allows Revolver Rigs to be joined together to create simple, light and efficient pulley hauling systems with a 4 or 5:1 ratio.

The back uses our horned design to stop connected items rotating around the carabiner to create dangerous cross loads.

• Available in Screwgate, Kwiklock and Locksafe variants.

• Single body design with integrated pulley and attachment becket

• Full cross-section top bar for excellent wear resistance

• Spine design minimises the chances of connected devices moving into cross-loading orientations

• Clean, taperlock nose increases gate strength in side-loading scenarios

• Tapered shape that ensures ropes seat correctly and consistently on the sheave

High Angle Solutions – Helix Tactical

Wednesday, December 20th, 2017

During DSEI, one of the companies we met up with was Helix Tactical which was created from Wales-based, mountaineering equipment manufacturer DMM’s tactical line. Here is an introduction to that brand. In future High Angle Solutions submissions we’ll examine their gear.


Helix Tactical has been set up as a specialist company to supply advice, equipment, systems and training to the tactical end user. We have been established to focus on vertical access, climbing and technical rescue in the tactical and military domain covering urban, mountain and maritime environments.

We can help teams to build bespoke systems that will allow them to climb, rig, ascend, descend and haul on vertical terrain whether that is establishing an access point on top of a sea cliff or allowing operators to set up an OP on high ground.
