The Petzl Basic Ascender is a compact and lightweight ascender that is perfect for rope ascents. It has a toothed cam with a self-cleaning slot that optimizes performance under any conditions, and a stainless steel cam that has better resistance to corrosion. The lower attachment hole is large enough for two carabiners (lanyard and foot loop), and the upper connection hole is for guiding the rope. The Petzl Basic Ascender is a must-have for any climber who wants a reliable and durable ascender for rope ascents.
