From Backcountry.com:
"The Petzl Pro Traxion Pulley's self-locking system makes hauling easier for you on your next big wall climb. Thanks to a large-diameter pulley, the Pro Traxion maintains 95% efficiency when it comes time to haul the pigs. The auto locking cam works well, even on muddy or icy ropes thanks to its extremely aggressive design. Petzl also gave this compact hauling system a bottom carabiner hole to allow you to build more elaborate haul systems when the load weighs too much for a basic one-to-one haul."

From US Outdoor Store:
"Petzl Charlet Pro Traxion PulleyThe Protraxion is a swing-sided self-jamming pulley designed for hauling systems. The coefficient of friction is very low thanks to a 38 mm diameter sheave mounted on sealed ball bearings. Its performance makes it an ideal pulley for big-wall climbing. An auxiliary return point for the rope allows hauling systems for heavy loads to be set up. The rope is installed very easily by opening one of the swing sides, which is unlocked by simply pressing a button: you can thus install the rope when the Protraxion is already installed on the anchor point.weight: 265 gFor use on ropes from 8 to 13mm ø."
