"This redesigned version of a tried and true Petzl ascender boasts a new cam opening lever for easier one-handed or gloved operation. Identical to Petzl's Ascension model, but designed without a handle to save weight. Made of lightweight, formed, sheet aluminum with durable steel cams; textured plastic cam lever gives a positve grip. Used for hauling gear or for self-belay on fixed top ropes in rescue situations or mountaineering. Now accomodates rope sizes from 8 to 13 mm in diameter, thanks to a slight reshaping of the wall of the ascender.
