The Petzl Basic rope clamp is a compact, easy-to-handle ascender for moving efficiently on fixed ropes or acting as a progress-capture device in simple hauling systems when you need smooth, controlled rope work.
Its toothed cam with cleaning slot bites securely into the rope and keeps working reliably even on icy or muddy ropes, while the large lower attachment hole lets you clip both your lanyard and footloop and the upper hole guides the rope to keep your system tidy. The light yet durable construction with aluminium body, stainless-steel cam and polyamide safety catch is certified for 8–11 mm ropes, so you can rely on the Petzl Basic whenever things get serious on rock or in the mountains.
