The Descent Control 8 provides exceptional control. This descender performs well in repetitive rappelling and descending environments. The unique shape prevents the un-weighted end of the rope from rubbing against the rope passing around the neck of the descender. As with all SMC products, welding is done by aircraft certified welders.
