Petzl MICRO TRAXION FAQ
In 2024, the MICRO TRAXION and NANO TRAXION progress-capture pulley certification changed to integrate the use of cords, including the RAD LINE 6 mm. Find compatibility and usage details in the updated Instructions for Use.
Changes to the certification did not require the products to be modified. Pulleys sold before 2024 are not affected by this new certified compatibility and are therefore physically compatible with the use of a RAD LINE cord.
Example of a pulley from before 2024
Markings on a progress-capture pulley beginning in 2024 indicate new certified compatibility.
