Petzl ZIGZAG® Mechanical Prusik

Intuitive to use:

• technique identical to classic Prusik pulley system
• the device locks automatically on the rope once the friction chain extends

For efficient movement within the tree:

• rope feed is smooth and precise thanks to the release lever, allowing the user great control over his/her movements. Adjusting the pressure on this lever controls the speed of movement
• easy to take up slack, thanks to the pulley mounted on sealed ball bearings and the separated and curved side plates
• lower attachment hole is fixed to ensure alignment of the device with the axis of the worker and optimize grip

Versatile:

• for use on either doubled ropes or a single rope, thanks to the CHICANE accessory, which offers more friction on the descent, and the KNEE ASCENT assemblies, which facilitate the ascent
• upper attachment hole for the rope end when using a doubled rope or for the CHICANE auxiliary braking device when using a single rope. It has a flexible positioning ring that helps keep the connector oriented along its major axis
• auxiliary attachment hole for adding a ZILLON lanyard or connecting a second system

Durability:

• steel construction for improved durability
• separated and curved side plates for better wear resistance

Rope compatibility: 11.5 to 13 mm diameter

ZIGZAG® allows the user to work in compliance with the ANSI Z133 standard
