PETZL ZIGZAG PLUS

Mechanical prusik with high-performance swivel for tree work

The mechanical Prusik ZIGZAG PLUS allows you to move effectively on the tree, while preserving the specific movement of the classic Prusik pulley system. The locking chain guarantees precision and fluidity in movement. The pulley, mounted on a sealed ball bearing, allows you to easily recover excess rope. The use on double rope and single rope guarantees excellent versatility. The lower connection hole with high-performance swivel ensures that the mechanical Prusik is permanently held in the correct position and that the rope is optimally guided into the device.

Description
Intuitive grip:
– movement identical to that of the classic Prusik pulley system for immediate grip,
– automatic locking of the device on the rope, when the locking chain opens.
For effective movements on the tree:
– smooth and precise rope retrieval, thanks to the release lever that guarantees great precision in movements. The pressure adjustment on this lever allows you to modulate the speed of movement,
– ease of retrieving the rope, thanks to the pulley mounted on a sealed ball bearing and the widened and curved flanges,
– lower connection hole with high-performance swivel to keep the mechanical Prusik always in the correct position and allow optimal guidance of the rope in the device.
Versatility of use:
– it can be used on double ropes and also on single ropes, thanks to the CHICANE accessory that guarantees greater braking action and the KNEE ASCENT pedals that facilitate ascents,
– upper connection hole for the return of the rope when used on a double rope or the additional CHICANE brake when used on a single rope. The CAPTIV positioning bar facilitates the positioning of the connector on the major axis,
– secondary connection hole to add a ZILLON lanyard or connect a second system.
Strength:
– steel structure for greater durability,
– enlarged and curved flanges for better wear resistance.
Rope compatibility: from 11.5 to 13 mm in diameter.
ZIGZAG PLUS allows you to work in compliance with the ANSI Z133 standard.
