Frame Construction technology advantages

Pressure is distrubuted over the entire surface = more comfort.
Maximum ventilation = more comfort.

• 
  High strength bias tape.
• 
  Perforated closed cell foam and ventilated mesh.
• 
  The pressure is distributed over the entire area between the tape.
• 
  Comfortable 3D woven polyester for maximum ventilation.

Security, comfort and functionality of Petzl harnesses

A harness is a tool for safety and performance. These objectives guide design. Security, comfort and functionality.

• 
  1. Frame Construction
  High strength bias tape along the edges of the waist belt and leg loops provides strength and support. The pressure is distributed over the entire area between the tape, making for a harness that is extremely comfortable and well ventilated.
• 
  2. Clearly identified green belay loop
  The green belay loop identifies the point where the belay device/descender must be connected. Its the strongest part of the harness.
• 
  3. DoubleBack buckles
  The DoubleBack buckle is patented by Petzl. The webbing is always threaded through the buckle. Adjustments can be made with one hand. The buckles lock automatically. The buckle can be completely undone if necessary (i.e. when putting the harness on when wearing skis).
• 
  4. Reinforced tie-in points
  When climbing, falling and hanging, the tie-in points undergo a great deal of wear from the rope. These areas are reinforced for increased durability.
• 
  5. Rigid front gear loops
  They help keep quickdraws and other gear. away from the body. Their inclined design helps make gear easily accessible at all times.
• 
  6. Flexible rear gear loops
  Reduce pressure points when wearing a backpack.
• 
  7. CARITOOL slots
  The waist belt is designed with slots to accept the modular CARITOOL gear holder.
• 
  8. Trail line loop
  Clip a trail line or chalk bag to the rear trail line loop.
• 
  9. Detachable elastic leg loop straps
  To partially detach the leg loops, the rear elastic straps can be easily unhooked without removing the harness.
• 
  10. Individual serial number
  Every harness has an individual serial number, allowing it to be tracked. This is helpful for PPE inventory management (particularly rental and training programs).

Harnesses with elastic leg loops

Lightweight and breathable, these harnesses are perfect for all types of climbing and remain comfortable pitch after pitch. Built with Frame Construction technology.

Harnesses with adjustable leg loops

These harnesses will win over climbers who enjoy mountaineering and long mountain routes. Compact and breathable, they are ultra comfortable with excellent safety features. Built with Frame Construction technology.

Multi-purpose adjustable harness

Multi-purpose harness for most activities, from via-ferrata to mountaineering (not for activities around water, like canyoning or caving). Built with Frame Construction technology.
