Belay Devices

The Kong Gi-Gi is a versatile belay plate and a true powerhouse in Kong's lineup! Made from hot-forged aluminium, this multipurpose tool works seamlessly with single, double and twin ropes. Its standout feature is the ability to provide self-locking belaying for one or two climbers, as well as smooth abseiling. The central rib acts as a fulcrum on the connector, allowing two climbers to be belayed simultaneously or separately, even if their ropes differ in diameter. In the event of a fall, only the rope under tension locks, while the other remains free to move. For emergency situations, the Gi-Gi can be paired with a self-locking device and foot pedal to assist with lifting.

The Edelrid Nano Jul is a lightweight belay device thats has been meticulously designed for use with thin half and twin ropes. Featuring manual braking capabilities, the Nano Jul offers exceptional stopping power. Its carefully optimised geometry enables the use of robust stainless steel without compromising on weight.

The Black Diamond ATC is a belay device that offers lightweight and durable performance for belaying and rappelling. The original design of this style of device has been improved to reduce the cable belay separation problems of the past. This lightweight model is the smoothest running device we stock and is therefore recommended for thicker ropes.

The Edelrid Mega Jul II is a lightweight, versatile and durable belay and abseil device designed for use when lead climbing. Made of durable and abrasion-resistant stainless steel, the Mega Jul II combines minimum weight with optimised design features. It is quick and easy to pay out rope using the thumb and has a high braking performance to support the belayer in the event of a fall.

The Edelrid Giga Jul is a a versatile belay device that is a both a standard and assisted braking tuber in one. The assisted braking function which supports the braking force can be activated or disabled by an intelligent built-in mechanism. Great for situation-dependent belaying and abseiling, especially in alpine terrain.

The Black Diamond ATC-XP is versatile and durable belay device with multiple friction modes. It has added grooves for use with thinner ropes that offers increased safety as they provide more friction and therefore more holding force when putting the rope in a brake position to hold a fall or when abseiling. The ATC XP also has a regular friction mode that is suitable for use with thicker ropes. The ATC-XP is now 30% lighter than the original design, thanks to its updated construction and machined windows through the body.

The Black Diamond ATC-Guide is one of Black Diamond's award winning belay devices. The ATC-Guide has two friction modes and an auto-blocking guide mode that lets you belay a seconding climber off the anchor.  The V grooves allow for the use of thinner ropes with increased safety.

The DMM Pivot belay device delivers confident belaying and effective stopping power whether used in guide mode, or belaying from the waist. Guide plates have traditionally been difficult to operate when lowering seconds. The Pivot's shackle reduces the force needed to initiate lowering, increasing control of the speed at which you lower your second.

The Petzl Reverso is a versatile and lightweight belay/rappel device designed for use with one or two rope strands and the ability to belay a second climber from the anchor. The specific design allows the rope to glide smoothly through the device and reduces wear. It is compatible with most rope diameters: single 8.5 to 10.5 mm, half 7.1 to 9.2 mm, and twin 6.9 to 9.2 mm.

The Black Diamond ATC-Alpine Guide is a slimmer, more compact and lighter version of BD's iconic ATC-Guide, the ATC-Alpine Guide is built for quick ascents in the mountains. This belay device is optimised for ropes between 8.1mm and 8.5mm yet works with ropes from 6.9mm to 9mm. The anchor-hole allows for easy feeding and pulling of rope, and the device's guide mode lets you belay one or two seconding climbers off any anchor.
