BEAL Birdie Assisted Braking Belay Device is a compact and durable belay device designed for both lead climbing and top-rope belaying. Featuring a robust all-metal construction with stainless steel cam and friction components, the Birdie delivers excellent durability and consistent braking performance. The rope feeds smoothly along the device’s axis to reduce rope twisting and ensure controlled handling during belays and lowering. Compatible with dynamic single ropes from 8.5 mm to 11 mm, the BEAL Birdie provides reliable assisted braking and precise rope control for sport climbing, gym climbing, and outdoor crags.
