"Free Shipping. Petzl Mini Traxion Pulley (Spring 2008) The Mini Traxion by Petzl is a compact and lightweight self-jamming pulley. The Mini Traxion is a 3-in-1 multi-purpose device (pulley, self jamming pulley, rope clamp). Self-jamming pulleys effectively replace the traditional hauling combination of a pulley and a rope clamp. Since they are simple and quick to install, they are ideal for rescue situations (in crevasse or climbing rescue).

Toothed cam with self-cleaning slot: works even on frozen or muddy ropes. Cam can be locked in open position so device can be used as a simple pulley. Can be used to ascend a rope."

From Backcountry.com:
"You can use the Petzl Mini Traxion Pulley for hauling on a multi-pitch climb, as a standard pulley, or for ascending a fixed rope thanks to it's unique locking design. The cam on the Mini Traxion Pulley allows you to pull rope through smoothly but prevents the rope from sliding in the opposite direction. It can also be locked open when you need a free pulley. Bring this 5.8-ounce self-locking pulley on a long trad route to haul your pack, or use it for crevasse rescue on your next mountaineering trip."
