The PINCH safety device from Edelrid is an innovative and multifunctional tool designed for both sport climbing and multi-pitch climbing as well as rope access techniques. It offers blocking support and a rappel function that make the climbing experience safer and more comfortable. A standout feature of the PINCH is the ability to attach it directly to the central ring of the harness, allowing for close-to-body and ergonomic handling. This facilitates rope management, as the brake rope can always be grasped with all fingers. Additionally, the linear rope path through the front brake grooves made of steel reduces rope twisting during lowering and rappelling. The integrated anti-panic function and the second braking stage provide extra safety, especially for beginners and when belaying lighter individuals. Weighing only 234 grams, the PINCH is lightweight and compact, making it an ideal companion for all climbing enthusiasts.
