TRANGO Aries Belay Device — Guide Mode, 7.5-11mm Rope, 7075 Aluminum, Regulock Carabiner Included

Overview

The TRANGO Aries Belay Device is a guide-mode belay tool crafted from hot-forged 7075 aluminum. With a lightweight profile around 90 g, it balances durability and ease of handling for day-long cragging or alpine missions. Packaged with a Regulock HMS Autolock carabiner, this setup aims to provide a dependable belay companion for diverse routes.

Enhanced braking and handling

Dual V Channels deliver refined friction control, helping you manage rope movement smoothly whether you’re lowering a climber or arresting a fall. The design supports confident rope management across both single-pitch tumbles and longer multi-pitch sequences.

Guide mode for direct belays

Guide mode enables direct belays from anchor points, making it easier to bring up seconds on multi-pitch routes, alpine climbs, and mountaineering trips where top-rope belays are common practice.

Durable yet light construction

Made from 7075 aluminum, the Aries emphasizes a strong, durable build without adding excessive weight to your harness. Its compact form helps reduce harness bulk on long days of climbing.

Rope range and versatility

Compatible with ropes from 7.5 mm to 11 mm, the Aries works with single ropes, half ropes, and twin rope techniques, covering sport, trad, ice climbing, and alpine applications.

What’s in the box

The package includes a Regulock HMS Autolock carabiner, designed to pair with the Aries for quick, secure attachment and dependable control during belays.
