Petzl Rocpec Drill

The Petzl Rocpec Drill is a hand drill designed for aid climbers and cavers. The drill accepts SDS drill bits and can drill holes of varying depths and diameters for all types of anchors. The lightweight drill is easy to set-up and dismantle and doesn't need additional tools.

£61.99 inc. VAT £48.28 inc. VAT

Petzl Freino

The Petzl Freino is a twist-lock karabiner that incorporates an integral braking system for improving friction on descenders and belay devices. Works extremely well with the Grigri when using slimmer ropes such as the Beal Booster, which can normally be a struggle. The Freino is ideal for adding or adjusting friction during descents.

£43.19 inc. VAT £33.55 inc. VAT

Petzl Stop

The Petzl Stop is a popular choice of descender, thanks to it being easy to use and having the backup of the automatic brake (remember to lock it off if you've stopped though!). It can also be used instead of a chest jammer in an emergency on short pitches. The downside is that it can get a bit warm on long descents of a dry rope (think Alum pot North West) so take a squeezy bottle of water with you!
