The PIRANA descender offers multiple braking options and can be installed on the rope without removing it from the harness. Designed for use with canyoning descent techniques.
* Three different braking positions to select from before beginning a descent * Two supplementary braking spurs allow friction to be varied during descent * A carabiner with a cross section of 12 mm (e.g. ATTACHE)provides a tight fit in the small hole, creating a "rigid" carabiner / descender unit * Stays securely attached to the harness during rope insertion, to help prevent loss * Reduces the risk of leverage on the carabiner gate due to poor positioning * When used correctly, the PIRANA prevents the formation of a lark's head knot around the body and reduces kinks in the rope, without decreasing braking friction
Technical specifications
For use on ropes from 8-13 mm Designed for single rope Can be used on double ropes, but certain braking positions may not be usable depending on the ropes diameter For use with a locking carabiner having a 12 mm cross section (ATTACHE or WILLIAM)
