The Petzl GRIGRI (plus) is a versatile and durable, assisted breaking belay device suitable for all levels of climber, and for use with all single climbing ropes.
Offering two usage modes and an anti-panic handle, the GRIGRI (plus) has been built to last and is able to handle some serious intensive use. The device is compact but easy to use and the anti-panic handle, which locks the device if the handle is pulled too hard, will give learners confidence when lowering a climber. Designed for both indoor and outdoor climbing, the GRIGRI (plus) can be used with all single ropes, but it's worth noting that it will work the best with 8.9 to 10.5mm diameter climbing ropes.
Depending on what you need to use it for, the two usage modes are top-rope belay or lead belay mode. The top-rope belay mode enables you to take up slack easier and together with the anti-panic handle feature, make the GRIGRI (plus) perfect for beginners learning to belay, and for more experienced climbers that prefer the additional safety features the plus has to offer.
Features
- Hand motions are the same as with classic belay systems: both hands on the rope. A fall is stopped by tightening the hand on the free end of the rope
- Can be used with all single ropes, and optimized for 8.9 to 10.5 mm diameters
- Diagrams for rope installation engraved on belay device (interior and exterior)
- Great durability, for intensive use, thanks to the stainless steel wear plate
- Exceptional comfort during the descent, thanks to the very controlled progression of the rope feed
Particularly suitable for learning:
- Anti-panic handle: if the user pulls too hard on the handle, the anti-panic function brakes and stops the descent
- Choice of belay mode, top-rope or lead, thanks to the selection knob: top-rope belay mode facilitates taking up slack and makes for a more comfortable belay
- Option of locking the belay mode
