Petzl Ascender/Rope Clamp Ascension

Ascender with a toothy cam that's self cleaning and grips solidly on muddy or icy ropes. Ergonomic design maximizes power when pulling with 2 hands, and it works with thick gloves and mashed up hands.

• Chrome-plated steel cam with angled teeth is self cleaning, and secure on muddy or icy ropes
• Moulded rubber and plastic grip with a nylon catch. Ergonomic design keeps your hand from sliding to the bottom
• Improved cam grips wet or muddy ropes, yet slides up easily
• Safety catch prevents the cam from opening too far and losing the rope
