The Petzl RIG® is a compact self-braking descender engineered for experienced rope access technicians who demand reliability and precision in daily work at height. Its ergonomic multi-function handle delivers outstanding descent control while the innovative AUTO-LOCK system enables effortless workstation positioning without tying off the device.

Constructed from aluminium, stainless steel, and nylon, the RIG is built for durability with a reinforced rope friction zone and a cam design that reduces wear over intensive use. Rope installation is fast and intuitive thanks to clear markings, a rope guide, and a moving side plate that opens while the device remains connected to the harness. Available in standard and repairable versions, the Petzl RIG® is a versatile, long-lasting solution for rope access and technical rescue professionals.
