Petzl Rig Descender Black - LY-D21AN

Description: The Petzl Rig Descender is a compact self braking descender, designed for use in rope access (expert users only)
Features:
- Multi-functional handle allowing the user to use the device as either a descender or belay device
- When used in descent mode, if the handle is released it will spring to the belay position thus 'failing to safe'
- Users can unlock the rope, control the descent and position themselves on the rope with the hand on the free end of the rope i.e. it can be used like a Grigri whereby the rope will flow freely through the device in a controlled manner but will lock if there is an uncontrolled fall (The automatic return system on the handle limits risks in case of an involuntary action by the user)
- The Rig has the same system of opening allowing the device to be fitted to a rope without removing it from your harness (using the moving side plate). This also helps when passing intermediate anchor
- A pivoting cam facilitates taking up the slack in the rope
- Can also be used to make a reversible haul system, and for short ascents (in conjunction with a FOOTPRO foot loop and an ASCENSION handled rope clamp).
Colour: Black
Size: Small (For single ropes between 10.5 and 11.5mm in diameter)
Conformity: EN341 Class A, EN12841 type C
