Petzl Belay Systems: Two Types of Devices

Working Principle

Belay Devices with Cam-Assisted Blocking

When a climber falls or rests,

the rope tightens and the cam

pivots to pinch the rope and

block it.

Advantages

• Comfortable belay, thanks to cam-assisted blocking,

which minimizes the strength required of the brake-side hand and

is especially useful for working a route: trying a move multiple times

and holding the climber

• Considerable leeway for brake-side hand position, regardless

of the angle between the climber side and brake side of the rope

• Exceptionally comfortable descent, with an ergonomic handle

that gives you progressive control of the rope feed

NEOX

Ideal for lead climbing

NEOX features an integrated

wheel that allows you to smoothly

and quickly pay out slack

to the climber.

GRIGRI

Compact and versatile

for belaying lead and

top rope climbing

For lead and top rope climbing,

GRIGRI provides comfortable

belaying and control

of the descent.

GRIGRI

Designed for learning

and top rope climbing

With its anti-panic handle,

the GRIGRI + is especially useful

for learning. Ideal for top rope

belaying, ASSIST + mode makes

it easier to take up slack.
