The Petzl Vertigo Wire Lock is a lightweight alloy double-action locking karabiner for Via Ferratas. The gate is opened by pulling the sprung barrel down with your fingers, so its easy and fast but much safer than a snap gate. It also has a wide gate opening and easy grip shape.
Engineered for progression lanyards, the Petzl Vertigo (Twist-Lock) carabiner is equipped with an automatic locking system and exceptional grip, making it effortless to handle while navigating intermediate anchors. Thanks to its spacious aperture and the Keylock system, linking the connector becomes a simple task. When paired with the Captivo positioning bar, the Vertigo Twist-Lock can enhance proper carabiner loading along the major axis, minimising rotation risks and maintaining integration with the device.
The Petzl Captivo is a positioning bar for the Vertigo Twist-Lock connector. It secures the connector to the lanyard, promotes loading of the connector on the major axis and limits the risk of it flipping. The Captivo is only compatible with the Vertigo Twist-Lock connector.
