REVERSO 3

Ultra-light multipurpose belay/rappel device

This multi-purpose belay/rappel device is lightweight and easy to use. The asymmetrical V-shaped grooved friction channels adapt the friction on the rope according to its diameter and condition (ARC -Adaptive Rope Control- technology)

• Ultra-light design:
  
  - minimalist construction
  
  - hot-forged aluminum
  
  - weight: 77 g
  


• 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
  
  - can belay the leader, one or two seconding climbers and can be used for rappelling
  
  - independent and simultaneous belaying of one or two seconding climbers in Reverso mode
  
  - quick changeovers from Reverso mode to belaying the leader when climbing multi-pitch routes



• V-shaped friction channels:
  
  - increased friction on thin ropes
  
  - friction is adapted for larger diameter ropes
  
  - increases the locking pressure on the ropes in Reverso Mode



• 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



• Carabiner hole to release device when loaded? in Reverso mode: allows the loaded device in Reverso mode to be easily and gradually released with only a carabiner



• Rope friendly, facilitates belay and rope handling:
  
  - will not kink the ropes regardless of the mode used
  
  - separates the two strands of rope when belaying and rappelling



• Intuitive use:
  
  - Reverso mode attachment point is easy to identify
  
  - keeper cable keeps the device from moving up the rope when belaying and reduces chances of losing the device
  
  - usage diagrams (standard belay and Reverso modes) engraved on device



• Use with symmetrical shaped locking carabiners (Am'D or OK) to maximize efficiency no matter which end is closest to the device.
