Product Information
Full details
The Petzl DUAL CONNECT Adjust is an essential positioning lanyard for multi-pitch climbers and mountaineers looking for streamlined anchor management. Its primary benefit is the combination of a fixed arm and an adjustable arm, which provides both security and flexibility when building stations or prepping for rappels, though users should note it is designed specifically for positioning and is not a shock-absorbing energy absorber for leading falls.

FAQs
Can I use this lanyard for lead climbing?
No, this device is designed strictly for positioning at an anchor. It is not an energy absorber and should not be used as a primary system for arresting lead falls.
What is the total length of the adjustable arm?
The adjustable arm can be set anywhere between 15cm and 95cm.
Does it come with carabiners?
No, the Petzl DUAL CONNECT Adjust is typically sold without carabiners. It is recommended to pair it with two Sm'D TWIST-LOCK carabiners.
How often should I retire the lanyard?
Retirement depends on frequency of use and condition. Inspect it before every use; if the sheath is damaged or the stitching shows signs of wear, it should be removed from service.
Can I use any carabiner with this lanyard?
While it is compatible with many locking carabiners, the TANGA rubber ring is specifically designed to work best with Petzl Sm'D model carabiners.
Troubleshooting
The adjustment mechanism feels stiff or sticks.
Clean the device with fresh water to remove grit or debris and ensure the rope is not twisted within the adjuster.
Excessive wear on the rope sheath.
Inspect your anchor points for sharp edges and avoid rubbing the rope against rough rock surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, pass the lanyard loop through the tie-in points of your climbing harness and secure it with a girth hitch. Ensure the knot is tightened and dressed properly before each use.

Care Instructions:
- Inspect the rope and the `ADJUST` mechanism before every climbing session for signs of wear, fraying, or grit.
- If the lanyard becomes dirty, wash it in lukewarm fresh water and mild soap.
- Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight, chemicals, or sharp edges that could damage the dynamic rope sheath.
