Petzl Chicane

Product description

The additional lowering device Petzl CHICANE allows the use of ZIGZAG or ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical prusiks on a single rope. Provides higher friction when chamfering. The excellent compatibility of the CHICANE and the ZIGZAG or ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical prusik as a whole ensures smooth sliding of the rope through the device during ascents. The ergonomic handle provides an excellent grip and facilitates movement when moving the limbs. Thanks to the opening sidewall, installation is quick and easy.

Use of mechanical ZIGZAG or ZIGZAG PLUS on one rope:

• Smooth braking thanks to the added friction of two friction segments
• Used with Am'D or OK coupling (not included)
• The H-shaped cross-section of the coupling, together with the positioning ring of the mechanical prusik, makes the whole system a compact unit that ensures smooth rope gliding during ascents
• Ergonomic handle facilitates movement when moving the limbs

Easy installation:

• Opening sidewall for quick and easy installation on the rope
• Three-stage opening reduces the risk of accidental opening of the sidewall
• Connects to the top hole of the mechanical prusik
• Optimised service life thanks to two friction segments available as spare parts
• CHICANE allows you to operate in accordance with ANSI Z133
