Petzl Chicane Ascenders & Descenders

Allows ZIGZAG and ZIGZAG PLUS mechanical Prusiks to be used on single ropes:
– continuous additional braking action, thanks to the added friction of the two friction pins
– used with an Am’D or OK connector (not included). The H-shaped cross-section of the connector, together with the positioning ring of the mechanical Prusik, make the CHICANE and mechanical Prusik a compatible unit that ensures smooth rope glide through the brake during ascents
– ergonomic handle facilitates movement while limb walking
Easy installation:
– openable side plate for quick and easy installation on the rope
– triple action unlocking limits rick of accidentally opening the side plate
– connects on the upper hole of the mechanical Prusik
Optimized durability, thanks to the two friction pins, available as spare parts
CHICANE allows the user to work in compliance with the ANSI Z133 standard
