BASIC ASCENDER B-18

The advantage of the Petzl Basic Ascender B-18 is the increased strength particularly on ropes of smaller diameter (4.2 kN on an 8 mm dynamic rope).

• Compact ascender with excellent grip
• Can be used for rope ascent on a fixed line or as progress capture in a hauling system
• Toothed cam with self-cleaning slot optimizes performance under any conditions (frozen or muddy ropes...)
• Stainless steel cam has better resistance to corrosion
• Lower attachment hole large enough for two carabiners (lanyard and foot loop)
• Upper connection hole for guiding the rope
• Item Number: 5942-B18
