The Petzl Glacier ice axe offers exceptional anchoring properties in hard snow and ice. Compact and light ice axe, but highly durable and strong. Designed for classic alpinism and glacier tourism. The highest quality materials and precise workmanship deserve your trust where health and sometimes life depends on quality.
The compact and light Petzl Glacier ice axe is a product of the production process from the highest quality materials. Anodized aluminum, which is used in the aviation industry, and forged stainless steel give it exceptional functional properties. Maximum strength, resistance to mechanical damage, and resistance to corrosion are part of the ice axe.
The ice axe is made up of small functional details that together create a perfect wholeness. The ice axe head provides a perfect and secure grip. The forged stainless steel tip on the end of the handle makes it easy to dig into hard snow and go through it like butter. The shape of the tip allows for a sure and stable lock.
The durable steel blade provides support for a firm grip, and the shape of its edges will allow for efficient cutting of climbing steps. Its slope directs the ice axe into the snow in the correct position, for example during "piolet - canne". The lower part of the handle also has ergonomic moldings for a more secure grip.
