Petzl Pro traxion Special Web Price

Petzl Pro traxion pulley jammer.

A larger, heavier, but more easily operated integrated pulley jammer than the Mini traxion. More effective low friction bearings, and the sides swing apart more easily when required. Designed for more serious rescue hauling, it is frequently used by rescue teams and professional cavers.

Not generally an item of personal kit, but taking a pair away on a trip abroad, putting them in a bag with spare ropes and a couple of bolt kits - and having a plan!- is a step towards being able to make an effective initial response to a casualty in a cave...injuries and other circumstances permitting.

Use your common sense! Don't sue me if you choose to haul a spinal injury in their harness...

This kit requires an oval krab, two are more useful.Add a Fixe pulley for the makings of the effective 2:1 haul system.

NOTE: as with the Mini traxion, the place to learn how to use this is not underground. Especially, how to release it while your mate is stuck under a waterfall. Practice - like any tool you've got to use it correctly.
