Petzl CHICANE additional brake for mechanical prussian Zigzag, Zigzag Plus

Detailed product description

The CHICANE additional rappelling device allows the use of ZIGZAG or ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical rappellers on one rope. Provides higher friction during salting. The excellent compatibility of the CHICANE and the ZIGZAG or ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical prusik as a whole ensures a smooth sliding of the rope through the device during ascents. The ergonomic handle provides an excellent grip and facilitates movement when moving the limbs. The opening sidewall makes installation 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 cross-section of the H-shaped coupling together with the positioning ring of the mechanical prusik make the whole system a compact unit that ensures smooth rope sliding 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 sidewall opening
• Connects to the top hole of the mechanical prusik
• Optimised service life thanks to two friction segments available as spare parts
• CHICANE enables operation in accordance with ANSI Z133
