Antal DV Jammer For 10mm Lines Standard
The Antal DV Jammer For 10mm Lines Standard is a deck-mounted line-holding solution that combines strength, reliability, and rope protection. Using Antal’s patented Double V-Grip system, it applies even pressure on all sides of the rope, reducing slippage and wear compared with traditional cam-style clutches. This makes it particularly effective with modern ropes, including Dyneema®-based cores, while also ensuring dependable performance with polyester double braids.
