Tree Gear

The GRCS-2 Good Rigging Control System is the ultimate tool for lowering heavy loads in a safe and controlled fashion.

Developed by arborist Greg Good, the GRCS has two settings, providing a 44:1 and a 22:1 mechanical advantage, and two specialized spools: one for lowering and one for lifting. It has a dead lift rating of 1360kg and a working load limit (WLL) of 900kg

The GRCS-2 is updated with an improved winch, the Harken 46Arborist, developed by by Harken for Greg Good. It has a taller drum, allowing for a full 5 wraps with a 3/4" lowering line. The self-tailer has also been changed to accommodate the larger diameter ropes used in the tree industry too. 

The GRCS attaches firmly to the tree trunk. Additional tree mount is hinged to provide secure attachment to a wide range of stem diameters (sold separately). The unit features a winch that separates from the mount for easy setup. The rope brake is interchangeable and made from aluminum to better dissipate friction heat. Multiple fair leads position the rope on the winch drum to keep operation tangle free. The 2 speed, self-tailing winch allows a single ground person to lift, lower, and lock off tremendous loads quickly, safely, and without tying knots.

This is the ultimate in rigging control, perfect for removals where absolute control is necessary.
