PETZL RIG REPAIRABLE DECENDER

The RIG descender is designed to meet the needs of experienced rope access technicians who work on rope every day. Featuring an ergonomic handle that provides excellent descent control, this compact and easy-to-use descender makes your workday easier. The AUTO-LOCK function allows users to easily position themselves at a workstation without manual operation. With increased durability, the shape of the cam limits wear. For intensive use and demanding work conditions, or simply for a long-lasting solution, the RIG is also available in a repairable version.
