Detailed description
Belay device with cam-assisted blocking for learning, top roping, and intensive use:
- For belaying both lead and top rope climbers
- Optimized for top rope climbing with a lockable selector knob that allows you to choose top rope belay mode, making it easier to take up slack and providing a more comfortable belay
- Stainless steel wear plate provides great durability for intensive use
- Cam-assisted blocking for a more comfortable belay: when the climber falls or weights the system, the rope tightens, and the cam pivots to pinch and block the rope
Easy to use:
- Easy to install the rope with diagram engraved on the belay device
- Feeding slack and catching falls are accomplished using techniques standard to all Petzl belay devices, always keeping a hand on the brake side of the rope
- Cam-assisted blocking offers leeway for the brake-side hand position, regardless of the angle between the climber side and brake side of the rope
- Compatible with 8.5 to 11 mm dynamic single ropes and optimized for those 8.9 to 10.5 mm
Descent control:
- Ergonomic handle allows you to easily unblock the rope and lower someone
- 3:1 mechanical advantage from the handle and camming mechanism helps reduce the amount of effort needed to smoothly control the rate of descent, regardless of rope diameter
- Anti-panic handle: if the user pulls too hard on the handle, the anti-panic function engages and stops the descent
