Product Description

Ultra-light (59 g) multi-purpose belay/rappel device that regulates the amount of braking friction on the rope according to its diameter and condition; Reverso mode

This multi-purpose belay/rappel device is ultra-light (59 g, 25 % lighter than the REVERSO 3) and intuitive to use. V-shaped friction channels with asymmetrical lateral grooves adapt the friction to the type of rope for better control (ARC technology: braking control for twin, half and single dynamic ropes). Reverso mode for belaying one or two seconds with assisted braking.

·    Ultra-light design:
- minimalist construction
- hot-forged aluminum
- Weight: 59 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 slides smoothly through device when taking up slack

·   Carabiner hole allows the loaded device in Reverso mode to be easily and gradually released with only a carabiner

·   Rope friendly, allows for smooth belaying 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 aluminum 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 locking carabiners (Am'D or WILLIAM) to maximize efficiency

Gear Reviews

  1. Multifunction and light

    Posted by Phil Ward on 6th Jun 2011

    The Reverso 3 is a lightweight multifunction belay device. It operates like a standard tube-style belay device, but can also autolock when belaying the 2nd - indispensible for multipitch. The jaws are useful for thinner ropes (and heavy leaders!) especially when using twins/doubles.

    Be aware that thick, fuzzy ropes can be a bit grippy to feed slack.


  2. Light,smooth and versatile

    Posted by Ang on 8th Feb 2011

    Great, smooth action for lead belay. The v-shaped braking design bites really well, even with smaller diameter ropes. Makes rappelling a bit more controlled too. The self-locking mode is awesome for belaying/catching your second while saving your strength, especially when they're a lot heavier than you.


  3. Great Descender

    Posted by Luke on 6th Oct 2010

    I've used several different types of descenders and ATC's, but I've found I prefer the Reverso.

    The extra holes and groves allow a number of things which aren't possible with an atc. One of the things that impressed me most was the self locking top belaying.

    I'd recommend paying the little bit extra for this device. It's also a petzl, a brand you can trust.
