PETZL RIG Compact self braking descender AUTO LOCK SYSTEM

Petzl RIG is a compact self-braking descender designed for experienced rope access workers. It has an ergonomic handle that allows comfortable descent control. The AUTO-LOCK system allows users to easily position themselves at the work station without having to manipulate the handle or tie off the device. Once locked, the rope can be taken up without having to manipulate the handle. The safety gate allows the rope to be installed with the device remaining connected to the harness, facilitating passage of intermediate anchors. The stainless steel wear plate improves durability by reinforcing the rope friction zone.

I specialize in cliff stabilization. My guys & i have been going through 1 rig every 10 days compared to one a month with the older models. The problem seems to be most of the friction is not on the cam anymore its on a smaller pin under the cam.
