DMM 16mm Pinto Rig 2 Pulley - Purple

DMM 16mm Pinto Rig 2 Pulley - Purple

The DMM 16mm Pinto Rig 2 Pulley in purple is a compact, high-efficiency pulley developed for professional arborist rigging and moving rope systems. Building on the long-standing reputation of the original Pinto, this updated version retains the familiar lightweight form while introducing performance improvements that enhance control and efficiency under load. It is designed for situations where smooth rope handling, strength, and versatility are essential during demanding tree work operations.

Improved efficiency with a larger working sheave

The Pinto Rig 2 features sealed ball bearings that significantly improve efficiency compared to earlier designs, supporting smoother lifting, lowering, and redirection of loads. A larger 38 mm sheave allows the pulley to accommodate ropes up to 16 mm in diameter, making it better suited to rigging applications where heavier lines are commonly used. Despite this upgrade, the pulley maintains compact overall dimensions of 115 x 60 x 37 mm, helping reduce bulk within complex rigging systems.

Textile friendly design for versatile rigging setups

Hot forged construction and carefully finished edges help protect ropes and textile connectors during use. The recessed sheave design creates a smooth rope channel, ensuring the line feeds cleanly from all angles and remains seated on the sheave, even when loaded at awkward orientations. Full strength attachment points at both the main eye and the becket provide flexibility when building rigging configurations, while the fixed side plate design allows easy clipping onto tensioned ropes.

Robust construction for professional use

Manufactured in Wales, the Pinto Rig 2 combines tamperproof construction with sealed bearings for low maintenance and long service life. It offers a maximum strength of 50 kN, with a 25 kN rating at the becket, supporting confident use in professional rigging scenarios. Weighing 222 g, the pulley balances durability with portability, while the purple finish provides clear visual identification within a working system.
