Description

The latest Petzl GriGri+ Belay Device builds on one of climbing’s most trusted assisted-braking devices, adding extra confidence for learning, projecting and high-volume sessions at the wall or crag. Designed for both lead and top-rope belaying, the GriGri+ combines smooth rope handling with added safety-focused features like an anti-panic handle and selectable belay modes, making it a strong choice for newer climbers, instructors and experienced belayers who value extra control. It is compatible with single ropes from 8.5–11 mm and optimised for modern sport climbing setups.

Built for everything from indoor mileage to long days clipping bolts outdoors, the updated GriGri+ features cam-assisted braking for controlled catches and confident lowering, while ASSIST+ mode helps make top-rope belaying smoother and more intuitive. Durable construction and reinforced wear zones are designed to stand up to repeated use, whether you’re racking up sessions at the climbing wall or projecting routes at the crag.

Features

• Easy to use:
  – Easy to install the rope with diagrams 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 optimised for 8.9 to 10.5 mm
• Descent control:
  – Ergonomic handle allows you to easily unblock the rope and lower someone
  – Anti-panic handle
  – 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
  Eco-design: all plastic components, including the handle, are made with recycled nylon
