What Fall Protection and Rescue Equipment Kits Does Gravitec Sell?
Updated
Gravitec Systems Inc. sells a focused line of fall protection and rescue equipment kits, most of them grouped under its "G4" product family, alongside block and tackle kits. The kits listed on its site range from about $935 to $4,520, and each is built around a different job: assisted rescue, evacuation, technical rope rescue, or rope access work. If you already know your task and crew size, you can match a kit directly; if not, the deciding factors are whether you need to move an injured worker, evacuate a platform, or support ongoing rope access operations.
The G4 kit lineup
The homepage product listings show these kits and price ranges:
| Kit | Listed price | Primary purpose (as named) |
|---|---|---|
| G4 Evacuation Kit | $935.00 – $1,235.00 | Evacuation |
| Block and Tackle Kits | $1,445.00 – $1,455.00 | Lifting/lowering (block and tackle) |
| G4 Assist Kit – Rescue System & Equipment | $2,035.00 | Assisted rescue |
| G4 Rescue Kit – Rescue System & Equipment (GR-G4/Rescue) | $2,845.00 | Rescue |
| G4 R.A.P.T.R – Rope Access Professional, Technician, and Rescue | $4,520.00 | Rope access professional/technician and rescue |
Prices are shown as ranges where the kit has selectable options, and as a single figure where it does not. The G4 Assist Kit and G4 Rescue Kit and G4 R.A.P.T.R are listed with an "Add to cart" action, while the Evacuation Kit and Block and Tackle Kits use "Select options," which indicates configuration choices before purchase. Checkout is handled through the site's own checkout page.
How to choose between them
The names map fairly directly onto the situation you are preparing for, so use the task as the first filter:
- You need to get a worker down or out of a hazardous position after a fall — the G4 Rescue Kit is the dedicated rescue system in the lineup.
- You need to move or assist a worker who cannot fully self-rescue, with a lighter or more assisted approach — the G4 Assist Kit is positioned as a rescue system and equipment set at a lower price point than the full rescue kit.
- You need to clear a platform, tower, or structure during an emergency — the G4 Evacuation Kit is the evacuation-specific option and the lowest-priced kit listed.
- Your work involves ongoing rope access, with technicians who also need rescue capability — the G4 R.A.P.T.R kit is the rope access professional, technician, and rescue package, and it is the highest-priced item listed.
- You need a mechanical advantage for lifting or lowering a load or person — the Block and Tackle Kits are the general-purpose option and are not labeled as a complete rescue system.
Two practical checks before buying: confirm the kit's configuration options (the "Select options" kits vary in price by configuration), and confirm that the kit matches the rescue or evacuation plan your site is actually required to have. Gravitec's broader service set — engineering, training, consulting, and ISO 17025 accredited testing — exists alongside the equipment sales, so a kit purchase can be paired with training or an engineered system review if your fall protection plan requires it.
Buying and support
Equipment is purchased directly through the site, with a checkout page and cart. The homepage also offers a "Request More Information" path and a "Build Your Own Fall Protection Standdown Session" option, which suggests the company supports buyers who need help scoping a program rather than just a single kit. For questions about which G4 configuration fits a specific structure or crew, requesting information is the more reliable route than inferring from the product name alone.
If your decision hinges on price alone, the order from lowest to highest is: G4 Evacuation Kit, Block and Tackle Kits, G4 Assist Kit, G4 Rescue Kit, G4 R.A.P.T.R. If it hinges on capability, start from the task — evacuation, assisted rescue, full rescue, or rope access — and treat price as the second filter.
