Offering a mechanical replacement for self-jamming knots (mechanical prusik), this tool is designed to lock onto either single or identical double ropes in the event of a technical error or slip. Providing versatility, the Shunt adds braking security on double rope descents, belaying a second, or can function as an occasional ascender.
Specifications
- When positioned below the descender, the SHUNT can be used as a back-up device to protect a descent on rappel
- Brakes when device is released
- For use on single ropes (10 to 11 mm) or double ropes (8 to 11 mm.)
- CE - 188 g.

Petzl shunt review
December 06, 2007
This a great device for solo top rope climbing and great for working on problems when you can't find a partner. The climber should always have another backup system like tying a knot, or use an accender.
