it should work but it may be a little loose and make for some faster lowerings... the Trango Cinch goes down to 9.4. It works great on my 9.8mm rope. Unfortunately Backcountry.com does not sell it.Remember this device is technically rated for ropes betwee 10mm and 13mm! That being said most people use them for skinnier ropes, and they work ok to about 9.5mm but use at your own risk!
