Manufacturer Petzl Weight 90 g Color Aluminum Size (color) One Size Mfg Sku/Part Number D50 Works with Ropes For use with single ropes between 8 and 13 mm in diameter
Can be used on double ropes, but certain braking positions may not be usable depending on the rope's diameter.Material Hot forged aluminum body (6082 ALU) Other Features -- 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
-- The PIRANA helps prevent the formation of a lark’s head hitch around the body and reduces rope twisting, without decreasing braking friction
For use with a locking carabiner having a 12 mm cross-section (ATTACHE or WILLIAM) - Product Reviews
