Product Overview
Petzl Stop Descender
The Petzl Stop Descender is engineered to enhance comfort and control during long, single-rope rappels. Its self-braking function ensures reliable on-rope control, making it easy to stop and hold your position simply by releasing the handle. This activates the internal cam, which pinches the rope and halts your descent, allowing you to rest or take in your surroundings. Additionally, when paired with an ascender and foot loop, the Stop Descender can be used to ascend short distances up the rope, adding to its versatility and ease of use. Constructed with high-quality aluminum and stainless steel, the Petzl Stop is both lightweight and durable, ensuring long-lasting performance even in the harshest conditions. The cam can be easily manipulated to adjust the braking friction, allowing for a customized descent experience. Additionally, the device is compatible with ropes ranging from 8.5 to 11 mm, making it versatile for various setups and adventures.
