Belay and abseil device Petzl GriGri+ green

The GRIGRI+ is a belay device with a cam-assisted blocking mechanism for belaying a lead climber or a second on a top-rope, both at indoor climbing walls and outdoors on the rocks. The handle with an anti-panic function (error protection) is particularly useful for teaching how to lower a climber. The device is ideal for top-rope belaying, and the ASSIST+ mode makes taking in slack easier. It is designed for use with single ropes from 8.5 to 11 mm in diameter.

Belay device with cam-assisted blocking and an anti-panic function in the handle, optimised for top-rope climbing:

• For belaying a lead climber from below as well as a top-rope climber
• The anti-panic function on the handle is designed to help users learn to lower a climber: if the user pulls the handle too hard, the anti-panic function engages - the handle is deactivated and the rope locks automatically; to unlock the rope again, the handle must be returned to its initial position.
• ASSIST+ mode, a button for switching cam positions. In normal mode, the device functions like a classic GRIGRI; when the button is switched to the ASSIST+ position, the cam is raised, permanently blocking the rope like a rope clamp. The rope can only be taken in this way; giving slack is not possible, except with the assistance of the handle.
• This function is ideal for top-rope belaying, for beginners, and for children's climbing clubs. In ASSIST+ mode, the rope is constantly blocked and can only be taken in.

Easy to use:

• Easy rope installation thanks to the pictograms on the outside of the device and inside on the cam
• Taking in and giving slack, including catching falls, are done using the standard techniques for all Petzl belay devices, always keeping a hand on the brake side of the rope
• The device is designed for single dynamic ropes from 8.5 to 11 mm in diameter and optimised for diameters from 8.9 to 10.5 mm

Lowering control:

• The ergonomic handle allows easy unlocking of the rope and smooth lowering of the climber
• Handle with anti-panic function: if pulled too hard, the handle disengages and the rope is blocked. To resume lowering, the handle must be returned to its original position and the process started again.
• The 3:1 mechanical advantage provided by the handle and cam mechanism helps reduce the amount of effort needed to smoothly control the lowering speed, regardless of the rope diameter.
• All plastic components, including the handle, are made from recycled polyamide.
