Its most distinctive feature is the ability to be attached \u003cstrong\u003edirectly to the harness carabiner\u003c\/strong\u003e, without the need for an additional dedicated carabiner—an unprecedented solution among the latest generation of belay devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eBraking Mechanism and Operation\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pinch system incorporates \u003cstrong\u003eactive assisted braking\u003c\/strong\u003e: in the event of a fall or if the device is not held, the mechanism intervenes autonomously to block the rope. To pay out rope in a controlled manner—for example, when lowering a climbing partner—it is sufficient to apply light pressure on the Pinch's lever, which releases the rope flow with an intuitive and precise motion. This approach significantly reduces the mental and physical effort required to manage dynamic situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility and Use\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with \u003cstrong\u003esingle ropes\u003c\/strong\u003e with a diameter between 8.9 mm and 10.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for sport climbing, multi-pitch routes, and rope access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eConstructed from \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-strength aluminum\u003c\/strong\u003e to keep weight down without compromising robustness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eCertified according to \u003cstrong\u003eEN 15151-1\u003c\/strong\u003e standards for assisted-braking belay devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to its compact design and direct attachment system, the Pinch proves particularly effective when minimizing the number of components on the harness while maintaining \u003cstrong\u003efull rope control\u003c\/strong\u003e at every stage of the climb.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EDELRID","offers":[{"title":"Green","offer_id":53229533659402,"sku":"73838","price":79.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/4357\/8378\/files\/imgi_74_web-m_1.jpg?v=1781770028","url":"https:\/\/www.verticalshop.eu\/en-eu\/products\/edelrid-pinch-73838","provider":"Vertical Sport","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
