Giga Jul

The Giga Jul is particularly light and simultaneously robust and abrasion resistant. This is made possible by a smart hybrid construction of aluminum and steel. The main body of the Giga Jul is made from particularly light aluminum. Parts which are at risk of wear (for example the friction channels) are made from robust stainless steel. Another chapter in our Steel Story.

By moving the green slider, the Giga Jul is instantly transformed from an assisted braking tuber to a standard tuber.

Product description

GRIGRI + is an assisted braking device designed for all climbers, for both indoor and outdoor climbing. It can be used with all single ropes (optimized for 8.9 to 10.5 mm diameter ropes) and is suited for intensive use. The reduction handle offers exceptional descent control. Two usage modes to choose from, depending on need: top-rope belay or lead belay. The top-rope belay mode and the anti-panic handle make for a more comfortable belay, making the GRIGRI + particularly suitable for learning.

• FOR ALL CLIMBERS: The GRIGRI + is a belay device with assisted braking for indoors and outdoors. Designed for all climbers.
• ROPE COMPATIBILITY: Can be used on all single ropes (8.5 to 11 mm in diameter) and optimized for 8.9 to 10.5 mm diameters.
• LIGHTWEIGHT AND LONG-LASTING: Great durability for intensive use, thanks to the stainless steel wear plate. Weighs only 200 grams.
• DON'T PANIC: Features an anti-panic handle. If the user pulls too hard on the handle the anti-panic function brakes and stops the descent.
• CHOOSE YOUR BELAY MODE: Top-rope or lead, thanks to the selection knob. The top-rope belay mode facilitates taking up slack and makes for a more comfortable belay.

Product description

The lightweight Black Diamond ATC Pilot represents an advance in technology for the world of assisted braking devices. Providing an added level of security to your belay, the ATC Pilot threads similarly to other tubular belay devices and accommodates ropes from 8.7-10.5mm. The durable steel braking surface has no moving parts, and the smooth and secure control allows for gradual lowering. With an easy rope payout, the ATC Pilot makes single-pitch projecting burns less tiring for the belayer and more secure for the climber.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come with a carabiner
Answer:	Hi there. No, this does not come with a carabiner. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out. All the best!
Question:	does it require a certain carabiner
Answer:	Yes, it requires a "pear-shaped" HMS locking carabiner. With the bigger end of the carabineer clipped into the pilot and the smaller end on your harness. Need the bigger end of the pear shape so the pilot can freely slide.
Question:	Is 8 mm to small to use
Answer:	I haven't had any issues with smaller ropes. The smaller the rope the less friction the auto locking function will have but it still works.
Question:	which carabiners with triple lock mecanism is compatible with the atc pilot? tks
Answer:	I bought the Mad Rock Hulk HMS Triple Locking Carabiner and it works great! I think any carabiner that has a big gate opening (20 something mm or more) is gonna work awesome.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the point of two rope slots
Answer:	Double roping. But also a spare when one side gets worn smooth (mine is almost completely smooth, after 3 years of hard use). But mainly for double-rope technique (highly recommended). This is a great ATC, but I will buy the "Guide" model, with its extra ring, next time, for remote belay technique (especially useful for ice).
Question:	Will this work with oplux
Answer:	The specs say it goes down to 7.7 mm, so it "should" work on 8 mm Oplux. Depends on what you are doing though. IMO, single rope belay or rappel on that thin a rope would be too hard to control.
Question:	What's the loop made of is it cable or aluminum
Answer:	Cable
Question:	Does this come with a carabineer
Answer:	No it does not come with a carabiner. If you need a carabiner then the Black Diamond Big Air XP package is what you want.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you Ascend Freely? Also will it stop you from falling
Answer:	It will not ascend with a 12mm rope. It has an anti panic cam that, unfortunately, locks in when you try to ascend. It descends wonderfully, will not ascend on larger rope....if any. Also, it DOES stop completely, with no creep. And I am 225+ gear.
Question:	Can it be used in gear for fire fighters, will iy withstand some heat
Answer:	Generally speaking, keeping away from fire is more important! We tested it on 80ft drop at speed of 1ft / s for 3 times, Observed maximum temperature increase was 58deg Fahrenheit, 69F outside temp, 127F the descender temp. From the results, the faster the decline, the higher the temperature. I found nylon and polyester ropes have a melting point about 450F on the technical website, Some information Tom Jones sent stated the maximum usable temperature should be 194F Conclusion: From the data, it seems unlikely Descender can generate enough heat to damage the rope when stopped if the melting point is used but we shouldn't follow this. Using the limit Tom provided on a hot day (100+ F) it probably possible to reach the limit, but you'd have been going very fast. At the same time we do not approve of dropping more than 330ft uninterruptedly Repeat once more: keep the rope away from the fire!
Question:	Is there a weight limit to this
Answer:	Yes, the max weight limit is 900 pounds.
Question:	Can’t seem to figure out how to tighten up the slack in the rope. It wants to lock up every time I try to pull on it
Answer:	This device is not designed to be used as an ascent device. It’s just as hard to pull in slack as it is for the line to run out when descending.

User questions & answers

Question:	What are the certifications on this
Answer:	Not sure what you mean by certifications? Black Diamond makes some of the most reliable, high quality gear on the market. The atc is the gold standard for belay devices.
Question:	Will this feed 3/16 rope
Answer:	It will feed 3/16 (≈4.75 mm) rope, but it is not designed for use with such small diameter rope. Manufacturer specifications are for rope between 7.7 mm to 11 mm diameter.
Question:	Will this accept 11mm rope
Answer:	It will fit up to an 11mm, however it will not feed very well with an 11mm.
Question:	Does anyone know how much these weigh? Thank you
Answer:	No idea but this is lighter than the last one I had from Petzel and this ATC has way better grip of the rope. If you are looking to cut weight I would cut it some where else and go with this rig. 10 out of 10 recommend.
