EDE_10004::ANT/OAS:
The innovative and versatile PINCH can be attached to the belay station in four different directions in 90° increments which means the lowering lever can always be brought into a position that can be operated freely. It is also the first device on the market that can be attached directly to the central ring of the climbing harness. Other features include an anti-panic function for added safety and a special integrated second braking tier, which enables controlled lowering by pulling the lowering lever further when securing particularly light person or in systems with high rope friction.
Features
- Assisted braking belay device for versatile use in sport climbing, multi-pitch climbing and rope access
- Position close to the body due to direct harness attachment increases brake rope control and improves usability
- Direct harness attachment eliminates the risk of cross-loading the belay carabiner
- Anti-panic function for increased safety by automatically locking the device if the lowering lever is pulled too far backwards (you can deactivate this function)
- Second braking tier if the anti-panic function is activated too frequently due to insufficient load and/or excessive rope friction
- Frontal steel brake grooves allow the rope to run linearly and ensure less rope tangling, increased durability and prevent unsightly discolouration that occurs when the rope rubs against aluminium
- Attachment to the belay station in four different directions in 90° increments
- Equal operation for right and left-handed users
- Suitable for static ropes from 10.0 to 10.5mm diameter (120kg max. user weight)
- Suitable for dynamic ropes from 8.5 to 10.5mm diameter
