Edelrid Cupid Swivel Connector

Edelrid Cupid Swivel Connector

The Edelrid Cupid Swivel Connector takes the twist out of a rigging system. A ball-bearing swivel rated to 20 kN sits between the anchor and the load, so the rope below it turns freely instead of winding up. It opens on a mechanical screw lock with no loose parts to drop.

Features and Benefits

The ball-bearing mount is what makes it work under load. A plain bushing swivel binds the moment weight goes on it, which is exactly when you need it to turn. Bearings keep it rotating with a person or a load hanging underneath.

Additionally, the screw-locking system means there is nothing to lose. No bolt to remove, no pin to secure by hand, and no small part that ends up at the bottom of the pitch. It is built to be opened and closed repeatedly rather than fitted once.

Moreover, the 25 mm (1 in) inside diameter takes a wide range of connectors, and the 12 mm (0.5 in) opening lets you get it onto a rigging plate or an anchor bar without stripping the system down. Edelrid certifies it to PPE-R/11.135.

Product-Specific Use Cases

Rope twist is the quiet time-waster in any hauling or rescue setup. Use this Edelrid Cupid Swivel Connector on fixed lines in the Hajar range where a full-length descent will otherwise spin a casualty, in industrial rigging across Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and in tree and access work where the load turns as it moves.
