About this product
Tailored to lead climbing needs, the Neox features cam-assisted blocking for both the gym and the crag. With an integrated wheel that allows smooth and rapid paying out slack to the climber, its ergonomic handle provides comfortable descent control.
Description
- Belay device with cam-assisted blocking, optimized for lead climbing:
- For belaying both lead and top rope climbers
- Cam-assisted blocking for a more comfortable belay: when the climber falls or weights the system, the rope tightens, the wheel stops spinning, and the cam pivots to pinch and block the rope
- Easy to use:
- Easy to install the rope, the device features clear diagram instructions for operation engraved on the device
- Feeding slack and catching falls are accomplished using techniques standard to all Petzl belay devices, always keeping a hand on the brake side of the rope
- Cam-assisted blocking offers leeway for the brake-side hand position, regardless of the angle between the climber side and brake side of the rope
- Compatible with 8.5 to 11 mm dynamic single ropes and optimized for those 8.9 to 10.5 mm
- Descent control:
- Ergonomic handle allows you to easily unblock the rope and lower someone
- 3:1 mechanical advantage from the handle and camming mechanism helps reduce the amount of effort needed to smoothly control the rate of descent, regardless of rope diameter
- Eco-design: all plastic components, including the handle, are made with recycled nylon
