VERSO

Petzl’s lightest belay/rappel device with adaptive rope control technology

The VERSO is a simplified version of the REVERSO. The asymmetrical V-shaped grooved friction channels adapt the friction for better control using our ARC (Adaptive Rope Control) technology.

• Ultra-light design :
  - hot-forged aluminum
  - weight: 57 g
• Single device for all ropes :
  - single ropes ≥ 8.9 mm
  - half ropes ≥ 8 mm
  - twin ropes ≥ 7.5 mm
• ARC technology adapts to the diameter of the rope used by increasing or decreasing the braking friction on the rope according to its diameter and condition
• Increased friction on thinner ropes
• Adapted friction for efficiency with larger diameter ropes
• Asymmetrical grooved sidewalls decrease friction when taking in slack for greater ease of use
• Super compact design is easy to use and doesn't take up much space on your rack
• Rope friendly design separates the two strands of rope when belaying with half/twin ropes or while rappelling, thus helping to prevents kinks
• Stiff keeper cable will not get sucked into the device and keeps it in the optimal position while also helping to prevent dropping the device
• Usage diagram engraved on device for ease of use
• Use with symmetrical shaped locking carabiners (Am’D or WILLIAM) to maximize efficiency no matter which end is closest to the device
