Description
The Camp Giant Descender is a multi-functional device developed to meet the demands of the most technical rope access and rescue specialists. The patented internal mechanism is combined with robust hot-forged construction and advanced ergonomics for control with heavy loads. Midline-attachable and easy to install, the Giant features an anti-panic system that locks the rope and stops descent in the case of excessive pressure on the lever. In addition to its primary function as a descender, the Giant is also certified for use as a fall arrest device, as an ascender with smooth upward glide, and as a belay device for climbing.
