Petzl Repairable RIG Descender – Black
Professional Descender for Rope Access Experts
The Petzl Repairable RIG Descender – Black is a compact, high-performance descender designed for experienced rope access technicians and rescue professionals. Built for daily use, it delivers precise control, durability, and reliability in demanding work environments.
Ergonomic Control and AUTO-LOCK Safety
An ergonomic handle ensures smooth, controlled descent, while the AUTO-LOCK system automatically locks the rope when the handle is released. This allows users to position themselves securely at a workstation without tying off or additional adjustments.
Easy Rope Installation and Versatile Use
The RIG features a safety gate on the moving side plate, allowing quick rope installation while remaining connected to the harness. Two descent modes—over the side plate or through the V-shaped friction channel—provide improved control and reduce rope twisting.
Durable and Fully Repairable Design
Engineered for intensive professional use, this repairable version allows replacement of key components such as the cam and pin using a dedicated repair kit (sold separately). Reinforced wear zones and an optimised cam shape enhance longevity in harsh working conditions.
