Petzl Oscillante emergency pulley for rescue

The Oscillante by Petzl is an incredibly lightweight and compact emergency pulley with movable flanges, specifically designed for crevasse rescue systems and for setting up improvised lifts in critical situations. Thanks to its movable aluminum flanges, rope installation is extremely quick and intuitive, allowing for rapid intervention during rescue maneuvers. The heart of this device is the 25 mm diameter pulley made of recycled polyamide mounted on self-lubricating bearings, a choice that ensures an excellent balance between lightness and strength, along with a performance of 71%. Weighing only 38 grams, the Oscillante fits into any backpack or harness without adding weight to the gear, while offering a breaking load of 15 kN and a working load of 4 kN. The attachment point has been specifically sized to be wide enough to allow the rotation of most locking carabiners available on the market, facilitating the integration of the pulley into any recovery chain. Compatible with ropes with a diameter between 6 and 11 mm, this tool is CE EN 12278 and UIAA certified, representing the ideal solution for climbers who want a minimal yet highly professional safety device. Its versatility and the quality of materials, including aluminum and recycled polyamide, make it a fundamental component for confidently tackling glacier progressions and the most challenging walls.
