Hot Item | Petzl Pirana Pulleys and Ascenders
Brand: Petzl




Product Features
The PIRANA descender offers multiple braking options and can be installed on the rope without removing it from the harness. Designed for use with canyoning descent techniques.

* Three different braking positions to select from before beginning a descent
* Two supplementary braking spurs allow friction to be varied during descent
* A carabiner with a cross section of 12 mm (e.g. ATTACHE) provides a tight fit in the small hole, creating a «rigid» carabiner / descender unit
* Stays securely attached to the harness during rope insertion, to help prevent loss
* Reduces the risk of leverage on the carabiner gate due to poor positioning
* When used correctly, the PIRANA prevents the formation of a lark's head hitch around the body and reduces kinks in the rope, without decreasing braking friction
