Petzl Basic Ascender - NEW Multi-purpose lightweight ascender A lightweight, compact multi-purpose ascender that works great for hauling systems, ascending fixed lines and as self-protection when climbing with a fixed rope. NEW: Chrome-plated steel cam with angled teeth and self-cleaning slot securely grips the rope, even in muddy or icy conditions. The cam has been refined to increase the efficiency in which the ascender glides on the rope. The wear area has been moved lower on the cams surface to increase its durability. The cam engages without losing a millimeter each time it is weighted and glides smoothly up a rope with a minimal of effort. NEW: The trigger is now recessed into the frame guarding it when ascending lower angled sections while maintaining the ability to open/close the cam with only one hand Multiple attachment points allow for different uses (e.g. self-belaying, haul systems, etc) Specifications For use with ropes between 8 and 13 mm in diameter Principal materials: aluminum for the frame, chrome steel for the cam, nylon for the trigger Color: gray Petzl's 3-year guarantee CE EN 567/UIAA
