Petzl GRIGRI Assisted‑braking belay device

The Petzl GRIGRI is an assisted‑braking belay device for sport and trad climbing. It is intended for belayers who want a compact, cam‑assisted device that helps arrest a fall while allowing manual rope control for feeding and lowering.

Benefits

• Assisted braking: cam‑assisted action pinches the rope on a fall, aiding fall arrest.
• Controlled lowering: manual lever provides smooth, precise rope feed and descent control.
• Rope compatibility: designed for single dynamic ropes from 8.5 – 11 mm.
• Lightweight and compact: small footprint and 175 g weight make it easy to carry on routes.

Used for belaying a leader or second, lowering a climber and rappelling on rock or artificial walls. Always attach with a locking carabiner and follow established belay techniques when using the GRIGRI.
