Sweeney Medium Quick Release
The Medium Sweeney Quick Release is compact yet super strong, supporting and releasing a whopping 500 pounds (226kg) with a 5 to 1 safety factor.
Originally designed for a secret animatronics facility, we made some tweaks to make it perfect for 'general' use. Just a 17-pound (7.7kg) pull on the latch lever and the load drops.
The body measures .625" (16mm) x 1.25" (32mm) x 3.25" (82.5mm), excluding the latch lever and pivot pins. The latch and hook are made of heat-treated 4130 Chrome-Moly Steel. This design is the perfect blend of our XL and L Quick releases, it has been used and loved by people all around the world.
This quick release is available as manual release only.
This device is for use by experienced special effects persons ONLY. ALWAYS test before using. ALWAYS inspect before using. Use at your own risk. If you have any doubts about the condition of this device, we will inspect it for you. Be careful and THINK.
