Details

Sterling’s FCX Self Rescue Device puts control in your hands to help ensure safe and effective escapes from rapidly worsening structural fires.

Made of precision-machined 7075-T6 aluminum, the FCX Self Rescue Device can be used with one of Sterling’s complete, certified escape systems or fully-customizable escape kits to form an effective personal rescue system.

The FCX’s cam provides superior braking modulation and over-pull protection for a controlled descent; the spring-loaded handle enables you to have further control over your descent.

The device’s click-to-neutral capability allows for quick, effective horizontal movement. The elevated side rails eliminate glove and sill interference.
