MAESTRO® L
$699.95
Descender with integrated progress-capture pulley for loads up to 280 kg, compatible with 12.5 to 13 mm ropes
MAESTRO L is a descender designed for technical rescue operations. It makes it easier to manipulate heavy loads when lowering or hauling, and may be used in both the primary system or in a backup belay. This versatility allows rescuers to adapt to a variety of different situations they may encounter on the rescue scene. The ergonomic handle and integrated brake enable a comfortably controlled descent. Changing from lowering to hauling is immediate, without the need to transfer the load. The integrated progress-capture pulley has a large diameter sheave mounted on sealed ball bearings, providing excellent hauling efficiency. The AUTO-LOCK system automatically locks the rope when the handle is not in use. Once locked, the rope can be taken up without having to manipulate the handle. The MAESTRO L descender is compatible with 12.5 to 13 mm ropes and can handle loads up to 280 kg/617 lbs.

Description
- Great versatility, ideal for technical rescue:
– Locking system with integrated progress-capture pulley allows the same device to be used for descent and hauling
– Can be used in both a single or twin primary system and in a backup belay (more information on this technique in the Instructions for Use and technical tips at www.petzl.com)
– Lower connection point can be used to create different types of haul systems
– Hole in the handle for installation of a remote control cord - Easy to use:
– Markings on the device make it easy to install a rope
– Ergonomic handle allows the rope to be released progressively and enables comfortable control of the descent
– Immediately changes from lowering to hauling without having to transfer the load
– AUTO-LOCK system allows the rope to be blocked automatically when the handle is not in use; once locked, the rope can be taken up without having to manipulate the handle - Efficient for handling heavy loads:
– Integrated progress-capture pulley with very large diameter sheave mounted on sealed ball bearings; rotates in only one direction for excellent hauling efficiency
– Sheave is faceted, creating additional friction zones for the rope and thus additional braking on descents
– Integrated brake on the device adjusts friction based on the load and rope diameter
– Can handle loads up to 280 kg/617 lbs. - Rope compatibility: 12.5 to 13 mm diameter
