Designed for experienced users working in rope access and technical rescue

Easy to use:

  • Markings and rope guide make it quick and easy to install the rope
  • Ergonomic handle provides good grip and excellent descent control
  • Moving side plate can be opened while the device remains connected to the harness, making it easier to pass intermediate anchors
  • The AUTO-LOCK system allows users to easily position themselves at a workstation without having to manipulate the handle or tie off the device
  • Handle automatically switches to storage position when the rope is removed from the device, reducing the risk of accidental snagging when the descender is carried on the harness

Versatile:

  • Two possible descent modes: with the rope running over the side plate or in the V-shaped friction channel, which provides better descent control and helps keep the rope from kinking
  • Can be used connected to the harness or to an anchor
  • Once the rope is blocked, it is possible to ascend in short spurts without manipulating the handle by simply pulling the rope through the device
  • Can be used to belay a lead with techniques used in climbing

Durable and repairable:

  • Reinforced protection on the rope friction zone helps prevent premature wear on the moving side plate
  • Cam shape improves rope pinching and limits wear on the device
  • For a longer-lasting solution or to account for intensive use and demanding work conditions, the RIG is also available in a repairable version (D021BA00 / D021BA01); replace the cam and pin using the repair kit (sold separately, D021CA00)
