Description
The Petzl RIG is a compact, self-braking descender for rope access, developed for experienced users.
Product description
The Petzl RIG is a compact self-braking descender specially designed for experienced rope access workers. The ergonomic handle provides comfortable control during lowering. The AUTO-LOCK system makes it easy to position yourself at the work station without having to operate the handle or secure the device separately. When locked, the rope can be taken in without operating the handle. The safety gate on the moving side plate allows easy rope installation while the device remains attached to the harness, which makes it easier to pass intermediate anchor points.
