Details

Take your belay game to the next level. NEOX is an assisted blocking belay device for the gym and the crag. Ideal for lead climbing, it has an integrated wheel that allows you to smoothly and quickly pay out slack to the climber. Its ergonomic handle provides comfortable descent control. It can be used with single ropes from 8.5 to 11 mm.

  • Belay device with cam-assisted blocking, optimized for lead climbing:
    - For belaying both lead and top rope climbers
    - Optimized for lead climbing, it has an integrated wheel that allows you to smoothly and quickly pay out slack to the climber
    - Cam-assisted blocking for a more comfortable belay: when the climber falls or weights the system, the rope tightens, the wheel stops spinning, and the cam pivots to pinch and block the rope
  • Easy to use:
    - Easy to install the rope with diagram engraved on the belay device
    - Feeding slack and catching falls are accomplished using techniques standard to all Petzl belay devices, always keeping a hand on the brake side of the rope
    - Cam-assisted blocking offers leeway for the brake-side hand position, regardless of the angle between the climber side and brake side of the rope
    - Compatible with 8.5 to 11 mm dynamic single ropes and optimized for those 8.9 to 10.5 mm
  • Descent control:
    - Ergonomic handle allows you to easily unblock the rope and lower someone
    - 3:1 mechanical advantage from the handle and camming mechanism helps reduce the amount of effort needed to smoothly control the rate of descent, regardless of rope diameter
  • Eco-design: all plastic components, including the handle, are made with recycled nylon

Does the Neox work better than a Grigri in a top-down belaying scenario? And, can the Neox be used to rap on a single strand?

Top Down Belaying: The Neox has advantages and disadvantages when belaying from the top down; the major advantage is the relative ease (very low friction) with which slack can be pulled up through the device. The major disadvantage is that the device lets slack out easily and requires a more attentive belay, with a firm grip on the brake strand.

Single Strand Rappel: The Neox will rappel on a single rope strand the same way a Grigri would. Once the wheel is locked and the cam mechanism is engaged, it behaves identically to the Grigri. The cam engagement occurs when you hold the brake strand.
