Petzl UNIVERSO: A belay system combining a VERSO and an ATTACHE 3D held in optimal position by a sliding connection piece
The UNIVERSO is a complete and lightweight belay system that is particularly comfortable and efficient to use on all rope diameters. This system consists of a VERSO belay device, an ATTACHE 3D carabiner and an exclusive sliding connection piece.
• Exclusive connection piece allows the VERSO belay device to remain in position and the ATTACHE 3D carabiner to work along its major axis
• Connection piece also limits the risk of dropping the belay device during rope maneuvers
• Easy and quick installation on the rope
• Reduced risk of being burnt by the belay device when removing it from the rope
• System is easily reversed (right/left)
• A single device for all rope types:
- effective braking on half and twin ropes ≥ 7.5 mm
- effective braking on single ropes ≥ 8.9 mm
• V-shaped friction channels:
- increased friction on thin ropes
- friction is adapted for larger diameter ropes
• Asymmetrically grooved sidewalls:
- increased braking power during a leader or top rope fall or while rappelling
- rope smoothly slides through device when taking up slack
• Rope friendly, facilitates belay and rope handling:
- does not twist the rope
- separates the two strands of rope when belaying and rappelling
