Petzl GRIGRI®

Cam-Assisted Belay Device for Lead and Top Rope Climbing

The Petzl GRIGRI® is the benchmark cam-assisted belay device for sport climbing, designed for both lead and top rope use. Compact, lightweight, and intuitive, it enhances belay control and comfort whether you're in the gym or at the crag, making it ideal for working routes and projecting.

Its cam-assisted blocking system automatically engages when the rope is loaded, helping secure the climber during falls or when weighting the system. The ergonomic handle provides smooth, controlled lowering, while the internal mechanism reduces effort during descents for consistent, reliable performance across a wide range of rope diameters.
