					<description><![CDATA[The AIR FORCE 3 belay device is designed for belaying and allows the leader to belay or block one or two seconds on ropes from 7.3 to 10 mm. The small hole makes it easy to release the ropes, even under tension. It has four grooves that accept single ropes but also two double or twin ropes. Its two V-shaped grooves make it easy to give slack. It also allows for effective control of braking and optimizes energy absorption when the climber falls. For added safety, each Belay device is provided with an individual number that guarantees its traceability.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<div class="nq-c-ProductExtraContent-desc-row-column-content-txt nq-u-Text">The AIR FORCE 1 belay device can be used with single ropes of a diameter between 8.5 and 10.5 mm. The V-groove runs smoothly enough to pay our slack easily, but also offers extra friction to improve rope braking while belaying and optimum energy absorption should the climber fall. The wide, smooth groove also avoids parasitic friction on edges and keeps rope wear to a minimum. For added security, each belay device has an individual number that guarantees its traceability.</div>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The BIRDIE is a brake-assisted belay device. Compact, it is also ergonomic for a better grip. It can be used with all dynamic single ropes, with a diameter of 8.5 to 10.5mm. Each of Beal's belayers has an individual number that guarantees its traceability. Entirely made of metal, with cam and friction components in stainless steel for great durability. The rope exits following the device’s axis, to avoid twisting.]]></description>
