Description
A revolutionary belay-descender device with assisted braking that delivers amazing safety and control Gradual camming action helps reduce the impact force of a fall and decreases wear and tear on the rope Proprietary Anti-Panic system automatically blocks the rope if the user loses control of the descent Double-hinged lever and straight rope path make the descent feel very fluid and controlled Intuitive design eliminates the possibility of clipping a carabiner to the device if it is not completely closed Wide attachment hole allows the carabiner to rotate through the hole High-end manufacturing with hot-forged aluminum main body and precision-cast stainless steel for the critical components that come in contact with the rope For single dynamic ropes from 8.6 to 10.2 mm The assisted braking action of the Matik derives from an innovative camming design that makes the device safe and easy on the climber, the belayer, the anchor and the rope.
