  The gear4rocks DESANT-CLASSIC is a multi-function self-braking belay device. During descending climber hold the handle, adjust descending speed by handle pressure. If a climber don't hold a handle then DESANT-CLASSIC will stop the descending or fall by blocking the rope. After a climber regains control he/she can continue to ascend or descend. The gear4rocks DESANT-CLASSIC can be used in conjunction with an upper prusik or jumar when ascending a single rope and works well alone when climbing or downclimbing along a static rope or handline. It’s self-locking feature also allows a lead climber to belay the second off a fixed anchor.
The DESANT-CLASSIC’s design is based on UIAA standards and holds 4 kN force on dynamic and static style sheathed climbing ropes between 8-12mm. The blocking mechanism has no sharp spines or teeth so it will not damage your rope. Maximum working load for the grip is 150 kg.
Before use ensure that the diameter and weight of the rope is sufficient by rapidly loading the device by pulling on the attached quicklink or runner. The DESANT-CLASSIC should quickly grab the rope. After every use inspect the DESANT-CLASSIC and clean the blocking mechanism of any dirt.
Allow the DESANT-CLASSIC to naturally track your movements. When ascending or descending do not touch the DESANT-CLASSIC casing, instead adjust it’s location by pulling the attached quick draw or runner. Grabbing the DESANT-CLASSIC during a fall may cause severe pinching of body parts and may retard the time it takes for the DESANT-CLASSIC to grab the rope. Ensure that only a locked carabineer is used with the DESANT-CLASSIC.
When ascending or descending near the lower end of a static rope the weight of the rope may be insufficient. Add weight, anchor the rope end, or have a partner hold the rope taught.
DESANT-CLASSIC is designed to take the weight of one person in a static climbing setting. If a situation occurs where DESANT-CLASSIC was involved in a hard or dynamic fall, it is important to retire the DESANT-CLASSIC. There are appropriate and inappropriate uses of blocking ascenders. Use the DESANT-CLASSIC only after necessary training under the advice of a professional climber.

  All equipment has been tested by "STANDART" the Ukrainian National Scientific-Certification Center in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. Testing procedures are based on CE and UIAA standards. For Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to be legally sold in Ukraine it must be tested by "STANDART." Upon your request we will scan and email you the image of the original testing certificate (Russian language).

All gear is manufactured from the highest quality materials and is assembled by qualified engineers under the supervision of experienced quality controllers.

The "strength" rated in the table is the maximum load a piece of equipment can take without sustaining damage. In the case of overload and damage it is important to retire that gear. Do not try to repair gear4rocks equipment.

As part of the gear4rocks quality control, each device is loaded to half of its maximum rating. Before it leaves the factory each device is reinspected to ensure that all components are working appropriately.

The gear4rocks links cams have passed CE certification. We will now be working through the UIAA or CE certification process for our other lines of equipment. As resources and time allows we hope to gain additional certifications for all of our gear. Unfortunately at this time we are unable to determine how long it will be before paperwork & testing processes are complete. Upon completion of CE and UIAA testing, certificates will be issued with the appropriate safety labels and the gear4rocks eBay listings and gear4rocks web site will be updated to reflect the endorsement.
