Petzl UNIVERSEL Piton

The Petzl UNIVERSEL is a forged, semi‑hardened (not heat‑treated) piton designed for flared and irregular cracks in limestone and granite. It is suitable for sport climbing and professional rock work where dependable placement in non‑parallel cracks is required.

Benefits

• Forged piton shape that conforms to the profile of flared cracks
• Semi‑hardened steel for a balance of resilience and strength
• Intended specifically for flared and branched cracks in limestone and granite
• Available in three lengths (5, 7, 9 cm) to match different crack widths
• CE and UIAA certified for climbing use

Typical use includes placements in flared cracks during sport and traditional climbing, and for professional anchoring in rock work. Choose the length that best fits the crack: shorter models for narrow flared sections, longer ones for wider ledges and seats.
