Rock-N-Rescue This is RNR. Family owned & operated, manufacturing & supplying top-notch rescue equipment since 1982 John (AJ) Weinel Jr - Vice President

Rock-N-Rescue has been a leader in industry since the early development of technical rescue. At the beginning in 1982 we offered equipment and tools to overcome vertical challenges in caving. As the need for rope access and technical rescue grew, so did our product lines. Currently today we manufacture and distribute quality equipment for many applications: emergency escape, rope access, fall prot

ection, confined space, search and rescue, water, fire, ems, tactical, ice rescue, sport, tower, industry, and much more. As the need for rescue continues to grow and evolve you can count on us to be at the forefront.

Some ropes are built for comfortable conditions. Voodoo isn't one of them.

At only 8mm, Voodoo delivers an impressive 35.5 kN (7,980 lbf) MBS from a Dyneema core protected by a Technora/polyester sheath built to handle abrasion, water absorption, and demanding environments.

And the numbers get even better.

* 35.5 kN / 7,980 lbf MBS
* Only 1.2% elongation
* 2.64 lbs per 100'
* Outstanding abrasion resistance
* Low water absorption
* 32% stronger than comparable 8mm tech ropes
* 31% lower in cost

Built for tactical operations, rescue, and saddle hunting, Voodoo gives you serious strength without the weight and bulk of a traditional rope.

When conditions get ugly, reach for Voodoo.

WHY ARE MORE RESCUE TEAMS MOVING TO 11MM?

For decades, 1/2" rope was the standard for many rescue teams. But rope technology has evolved, and more agencies are recognizing that bigger doesn't necessarily mean better.

Modern 11mm rescue ropes can offer some significant advantages:

• Less weight to carry: especially noticeable with 200', 300' and longer rope systems.

• Smaller pack size: more rope in the same bag and less equipment taking up valuable compartment space.

• Easier handling: a smaller diameter can make rope management, knot tying and general rigging more efficient.

• Lower cost: agencies can potentially reduce the cost of outfitting and replacing rope inventories without sacrificing performance.

• Serious strength: today's high-performance 11mm ropes can deliver strength ratings traditionally associated with much larger ropes.

A perfect example is the RNR Poseidon General Use 11mm.

At just 11mm, Poseidon G delivers an impressive 42.9 kN (9,644 lbf) minimum breaking strength with only 1.2% elongation at 300 lb.

That's a tremendous amount of performance packed into a smaller, lighter rope.

For departments looking to reduce equipment weight, simplify rope management and stretch equipment budgets further, it's easy to understand why 11mm is becoming such an attractive option.

Smaller diameter. Less weight. Less bulk. Serious performance.

Maybe it's time to rethink what a rescue rope needs to look like.

There’s a reason KASK is our #1 selling helmet at Rock-N-Rescue.

Actually, there are quite a few.

When you spend your day working at height, your helmet isn't something you should have to think about. It needs to fit right, stay comfortable for long shifts, integrate with the rest of your PPE, and most importantly, protect you when it matters.

That’s where KASK has built its reputation.

Comfort that lasts all day.
KASK’s suspension and adjustment systems provide a secure, balanced fit without the pressure points that can make a helmet miserable after a few hours.

Built for professionals.
From rope rescue and tower work to utilities, arboriculture, and industrial access, KASK helmets are designed around people who actually wear a helmet for a living.

A complete system.
Visors, hearing protection, winter liners, neck shades, replacement padding and other accessories allow you to configure your helmet around the job instead of working around your helmet.

Proven protection.
KASK combines thoughtful engineering, quality construction, and applicable safety certifications into helmets we’re comfortable putting on our own heads.

And ultimately, that's why they sell.

We can stock a lot of helmets. Our customers keep choosing KASK.

If you're still wearing a helmet you can't wait to take off at the end of the day, it might be time to find out what you're missing.

From our lead instructor:

The Octavia pulley from Omega Pacific is a game-changer in rescue operations for teams of all levels and sizes. The pulley's three-hole rigging plate, built into the side plates, allows a wide range of variation for techniques such as:

1. Skate Blocks
2. Tensioned Diagonals
3. English and Norwegian Highline Reeves
4. Confined Space Tripod Rigging
5. Load-Sharing Change of Directions
6. Directional Off-Sets
7. Work Positioning Systems
...and any other system requiring a pulley.

The Octavia allows segregation of attachment points to reduce the side loading and torsional loading sometimes seen when multiple connectors are placed into a single pulley attachment point. Whether using the Octavia for rope, confined space, or water rescue, the versatility and efficiency of this pulley gives rescuers the biggest return on investment.

Built to simplify complicated systems. Built for rescue.

There are moments in business that mean more than a new product or a milestone.

Today is one of those days.

I'm incredibly proud to share that Omega Pacific's in-house production has officially begun.

To many, this may just look like another manufacturing announcement. To me, it's something I've dreamed about for years.

The very first carabiner I ever owned was an Omega Pacific. Long before I ever imagined being part of this company, I admired what the Omega name represented: quality, innovation, and American manufacturing.

Growing up just outside of Pittsburgh, I also saw firsthand what manufacturing meant to our communities. Steel and aluminum built this region, supported countless families, and created opportunities for generations. Like many others, I've always believed that America still has the ability to build world class products right here at home.

Today, we're taking another step toward that vision.

Our goal isn't simply to make products ourselves. It's to build them better. To tighten our quality standards. To innovate faster. To create skilled American jobs. And to invest in the people and equipment that will keep Omega Pacific strong for decades to come.

This is only the beginning.

We're grateful for every dealer, every climber, every arborist, every rescuer, and every worker who has trusted Omega Pacific over the years. Your support has made this possible, and we're committed to earning that trust every single day.

The American dream isn't something you inherit. It's something you build.

And above all, we hope this serves as a reminder that no matter where you come from or how ambitious the goal may seem, IT IS POSSIBLE.

We're proud to be building that future one carabiner, one pulley, and one American job at a time.

Thank you for believing in us.

🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸

Today we celebrate the freedoms that generations of Americans have fought to protect.

While many of us are enjoying time with family, firing up the grill, or watching fireworks, thousands of military personnel, firefighters, EMS professionals, law enforcement officers, dispatchers, and healthcare workers are spending the holiday on duty, ready to answer the call whenever they're needed.

To those standing the watch today: thank you. Your commitment, sacrifice, and willingness to serve do not go unnoticed.

We wish everyone a safe and meaningful Fourth of July. Take a moment to appreciate the freedoms we enjoy and the men and women who continue to protect them every day.

God Bless America.
