Description

The Petzl GRIGRI is an assisted braking belay device that’s durable, compact and light, ideal for indoor wall climbing and sport climbing.

Designed ideally for experienced sport climbers and versatile enough to be used on all single climbing ropes, thePetzl GRIGRI is a performance belay device that works equally as well for lead climbing as it does for top roping. Now redesigned and coming in at a full 10g lighter than the GRIGRI 2 (2018), it can be used on all single dynamic 8.5 to 11mm ropes, but will perform optimally with 8.9 to 10.5mm diameter climbing ropes.

Compact and ultra-light, the GRIGRI is a hard wearing device designed to withstand plenty of use and abuse by experienced climbers. For an assisted breaking device more suitable for beginners, check out the Petzl GRIGRI + (plus) model which has safety features that are better suited to novices.

Features

Belay device with assisted braking, compatible with a broad range of single rope diameters, for both gym and crag:

• Feeding slack and catching falls are done using standard belay techniques; always keep a hand on the brake-side of the rope
• The assisted braking function is activated when a climber falls, the device pivots, the rope tightens and the cam pinches and blocks the rope. Holding the brake side of the rope helps engage the cam, therefore it is important to always hold the brake side of the rope
• Compatible with dynamic single ropes 8.5 to 11 mm, optimised for 8.9 to 10.5 mm
• Rope installation diagram engraved on both the interior and exterior of the device

Exceptional comfort during descents:

• The ergonomic handle allows you to easily lower someone
• Smooth descent control is achieved thanks to the progressive action of the cam

Designed for experienced belayers:

• Simple to use for belaying both lead or top-rope climbers
• Optimally balanced design: lightweight (175 g), compact and durable
