Edelrid Pinch

The Edelrid Pinch is a revolutionary assisted braking belay device, designed for both sport and multi-pitch climbing. It's the first of its kind that attaches directly to the central ring of a climbing harness, ensuring a low, easy-to-manage profile. This positioning allows for uninterrupted rope release and the ability to grip the brake rope with all fingers, enhancing control and safety.

Features:
- Assisted braking belay device for versatile use in sport climbing and multi-pitch climbing
- Position close to the body due to direct harness connection increases brake rope control and improves usability
- Direct harness connection eliminates the risk of cross-loading the belay carabiner
- Anti-panic function can be deactivated for increased safety by automatically locking the device if the release lever is pulled too far backwards
- Second braking tier if the anti-panic function is activated too frequently due to insufficient load and/or excessive rope friction
- Frontal steel brake grooves allow the rope to run linearly and ensure less rope tangling, increased durability and prevent unsightly discoloration that occurs when the rope rubs against aluminium
- Attachment to the stand in four different directions in 90° increments
- Equal operation for right and left-handed users
- Suitable for dynamic ropes from 8.5 to 10.5 mm diameter
