Edelrid Pinch

The Edelrid Pinch assisted breaking belay device offers a revolutionary belaying experience, perfect for sport climbing, multi-pitch climbing, and rope access techniques. This innovative device is the first of its kind to attach directly to the central ring of a climbing harness, providing a low, close-to-the-body position that enhances brake rope control and usability. The compact design allows for an increased span, enabling the belayer to pay out 20-30 cm more rope at once, while the frontal steel braking grooves ensure a linear rope run, reducing tangles and increasing durability. The anti-panic function adds an extra layer of safety, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced climbers.
