RIG Repairable Black

The Petzl RIG Repairable is a descender for rope access and rescue. It combines high control during descent with the possibility of repair, offering a longer lifespan and lower running costs over time.

This version of the RIG is specifically designed for professional users who work daily in demanding environments. The ergonomic handle provides precise control during descent, while the AUTO LOCK function allows for secure and easy work positioning without additional steps. The openable side plate makes it easy to pass intermediate anchors without disconnecting the device. The main advantage is its repairable design, where the cam and pin can be replaced, reducing the need to replace the entire unit in case of wear.
