- Coated Braided Cable
- Works with 7.7-11mm Ropes
The Black Diamond ATC-XP is a true variable-friction belay rappel device.
The ATC-XP maintains the silky-smooth feeding of Black Diamond's ATC but increases the braking power. For belaying and rappelling with 7.7-11 millimeter ropes, it’s designed with a smooth low friction side and a high friction side with v-shaped grooves for three times more friction. This means less effort to brake falls and rappels.
An extended central cable keeps biners and ropes properly oriented and reduces kinking.
Ideal for single or double rope rappelling, belaying, mountain, ice and rock climbing.
