MELCO's SAF-T-SLIDE has been constructed with safety as the main goal. The aluminum rollers that ride on the 7/16" of 1/2" steel cable are designed to prevent sparks as the device exits the derrick. The bronze braking mechanism is also designed to prevent sparks and is durable to wear.
MELCO'S SAF-T-SLIDE is adaptable in all types of weather contitions, however, greater caution should be taken in inclement weather.
The SAF-T-SLIDE is easy to install and has low maintenance requirements. Removal of a locking pin and bolt allows the device to open up so it can be placed on the cable.
The SAF-T-Slide's descent from the derrick is controlled by the spring loaded brake handle. The brake is automatically locked in PARK (stationary) position and the device begins to descend as the brake handle is pulled toward the individual.
If the MLECO SAF-T-SLIDE is installed properly, and maintained, it will help prevent loss in an emergency situation.
Eack MELCO SAF-T-SLIDE is inspected and tested before it leaves the factory. The SAF-T-SLIDE is manufactured with only the finest materials, and Quality records are kept by serial number on all devices sold.
MELCO does not offer replacement parts for the SAF-T-SLIDE because of the importance of keeping a properly maintained SAF-T-SLIDE.
Contact MELCO general offices in Odessa, Texas for additional information and installation manual.
MELCO also manufactures a Derrick Climber device that assists individuals in climbling a derrick by using a counter balance system.
