The Ocun Habu is considered an innovative belay/rappel device due to its unique "no release hole" lowering mechanism in autoblock mode, utilizing a specialized notch for carabiner-controlled, smooth, and safe lowering. It also features an optimized cavity shape that prevents the formation of sharp edges, enhancing rope durability.

 

• • Anti-Sharp Edge Design: The device is engineered with an optimized cavity shape that prevents the development of sharp, rope-damaging edges, even after long-term, intensive use.
  • V-Shaped Rope Grooves: These grooves are designed to maintain proper rope alignment, reducing twists and ensuring smooth, reliable rope feeding.
  • Versatile Autoblock Mode: It efficiently handles belaying a follower directly from an anchor point.
  • Upper Arch Profile: The upper arch of the device has a specific profile designed to improve handling and cooperation with carabiners.
  • Innovative Lowering System: Unlike traditional guides/tubes, the Habu does not require a dedicated release hole to lower a follower in autoblock mode, making the process smoother and safer using a quickdraw or carabiner.
    

Key Details:

• Autoblock mode for belaying the follower from anchor point.
• Innovative lowering in autoblock mode – no release hole needed.
• Optimized cavity shape keeps sharp edges from forming even after long-term use.

The Ocun Habu is suitable for single (8.5–10.5 mm), half (7.1–9.2 mm), and twin ropes (7.0–9.2 mm).
