Pivot Belay Device

Quick Facts:

Who it's for? - Climbers

What it does? - A traditional tube-style belay/rappel device with a feature to reduce the force needed to lower in guide-mode

How it does it? - A unique pivoting attachment point when used in guide mode

Description

The Pivot belay device delivers confident belaying and effective stopping power whether used in guide mode, or belaying from the waist. Guide plates have traditionally been difficult to operate when lowering seconds. The Pivot's shackle reduces the force needed to initiate lowering, increasing control of the speed at which you can lower your second.

Features

• This device increases rope control when belaying, lowering a partner and abseiling.
• Enables guide mode and gives easily controlled lowering of two seconds
• The shackle moves the point of leverage when initiating lowering of your second. This reduces the force needed to initiate and control lowering of one or two seconds.
• High performance internal geometry gives greater rope control
• Hot forging and CNC technology is used to shape the internal structure of the device to give greater control over a wide range of ropes. This is especially evident when using modern, small diameter ropes.
• Two friction modes for varying applications
• In its standard orientation, this device gives confident control over a wide variety of rope diameters. It can also be flipped 180° for smooth abseiling on thick or low stretch ropes.
