GRIVEL 2X8 Belay and Rappel Device

Experience the evolution of a classic with the GRIVEL 2X8, a meticulously engineered belay and rappel device designed for the modern climber. Combining timeless figure-of-8 functionality with innovative Italian design, the 2X8 offers unparalleled control and featherlight performance, making it an essential piece of hardware for alpinism, multi-pitch routes, and any ascent where weight and versatility are paramount. This device redefines what a figure of 8 can be, delivering advanced features in a simple, intuitive, and incredibly lightweight package.

At the heart of the 2X8´s superior performance is its unique asymmetrical curved shape. This intelligent design provides two distinct friction modes in a single device, giving you complete command over your descent. Use the convex side for a smoother, faster rappel or for paying out rope with minimal resistance, ideal for low-angle terrain or when speed is a priority. When you need increased braking power, are managing a heavier load, or are using thinner ropes, simply flip the device to its concave side. This orientation applies more friction, allowing for a highly controlled, secure, and confident belay or rappel. This adaptability allows you to fine-tune your setup on the fly, providing safety and security across varying rope diameters and conditions.

Pushing the boundaries of innovation, the GRIVEL 2X8 incorporates an advanced Cooling Technology design. The strategically placed perimeter holes are not just for aesthetics; they create significant airflow around the device. This actively dissipates heat during long or fast rappels, reducing the risk of rope glazing and ensuring consistent, reliable performance from the top of the route to the bottom. A crucial benefit of this engineering is a dramatic reduction in weight, resulting in an exceptionally light yet robust tool that will never weigh you down on the approach or the climb.

Built for today´s climbing standards, the 2X8 is remarkably versatile. The primary attachment point is complemented by a smaller hole, specifically engineered to provide a secure and reliable connection when used with thinner ropes, a common feature in modern climbing and mountaineering. This dual-hole system ensures compatibility across a wide spectrum of rope diameters, making the 2X8 a truly universal tool for your rack. Whether you´re belaying a leader, bringing up a second, or rappelling multiple pitches, its intuitive design delivers unwavering reliability. The GRIVEL 2X8 is more than just a figure of 8; it´s a testament to smart design and a commitment to climber safety and efficiency.

Features:
- Light figure of 8 device for belaying and rappelling.
- The smaller hole can be used for thinner ropes.
- The Asymmetrical curve shape guarantees different frictions depending on which side is used. The convex side applies less friction while the concave side applies more friction.
- Cooling Technology perimeter holes allow more airflow therefore less heat build and a lighter object.

Dima

outstanding quality, light weight, compact, highly recommend for mountaineering, ski touring where light weight is considerable and 8 figure is preferable with icy ropes, definitely not for canyoning (probably as spare descender)

Figure eight descender.
