DEF

Deux mousquetons reliés par une petite sangle. Durant l'ascension, l'alpiniste transporte ses dégaines accrochées au baudrier; le premier mousqueton est accroché au piton et le second sert au passage de la corde. Le tout vise à éloigner la corde de la paroi rocheuse et à en éviter ainsi l'usure prématurée.

OBS

Les sources consultées décrivent ou illustrent cet ensemble mousquetons/petite sangle (ou cordelette) mais ne le nomment pas.
