These specially designed pulleys were developed together with military rescue-specialists and mountain guides, and are now used extensively in those fields. After numerous years of use we have now certified them for the recreation market. They're ideal for multiple activities where small, lightweight pulleys are desired, and where ultimate trust is required. The machined side-plates ensure strength where needed while allowing us to create beautiful, radiused edges for ultimate rope-friendly use. The Piccolo Pulleys have impressive strength and efficiency in a tiny 46 gram package, truly living up to its name. The Piccolo uses a very efficient, high-quality ball-bearing which means less effort on your part; both carrying it and hauling loads with it.
