Petzl ASCENSION Right-Hand Ascender | EN 567 and EN 12841 Type B | For 8 to 13 mm Ropes

The Petzl ASCENSION Right Hand Ascender is a high-performance piece of equipment developed to provide efficient, comfortable, and precise rope ascent , and is a world reference in rope access operations, work at height, technical rescue, and industrial mountaineering .

Its ergonomic design was developed to offer maximum efficiency during vertical progression. The overmolded bi-material grip , composed of rubber and polyamide , provides excellent grip, comfort, and control, reducing fatigue even during long work shifts. The wide grip opening facilitates use with protective gloves , while the ergonomic upper part allows for applying force with both hands during ascent.

The locking system utilizes an eccentric stainless steel cam with micro-teeth , which offers excellent grip on the rope without compromising its sheath. The self-cleaning groove automatically removes mud, dust, water, and ice, ensuring reliable performance even in harsh environments.

The pivoting safety lock , integrated into the equipment body, reduces the risk of snagging and accidental openings during operation, providing greater convenience and safety during maneuvers.

The wide, semicircular bottom hole allows for the simultaneous connection of two carabiners, facilitating use with accessories such as CONNECT ADJUST , FOOTAPE, and FOOTCORD . The upper holes allow for the installation of a carabiner around the rope for greater stability during progression.

Compatible with ropes from 8 to 13 mm , the ASCENSION operates in temperatures between -40°C and +80°C , making it suitable for professionals working in NR-35 (Brazilian safety standard), rope access, industrial inspection, maintenance, oil and gas, energy, telecommunications, confined spaces, vertical rescue, and the offshore industry .
