Petzl SPIN L1 Pulley
The Petzl SPIN L1 is a very high-efficiency single pulley with an integrated swivel. It is designed for straightforward setup of hauling systems, load deviations, and Tyrolean traverses in work-at-height, rescue, and tree-care operations.
Its large 38 mm sheave runs on sealed ball bearings for 95% efficiency. The moving side plate uses a triple-action opening mechanism and can be opened while the pulley remains connected to the anchor.
Detailed product use cases
- Professional hauling: High-efficiency single-pulley systems for moving loads within Petzl’s stated ratings.
- Load deviations: Redirect ropes while the swivel helps orient the pulley under load.
- Tyrolean traverses: Suitable for properly engineered work-at-height and rescue systems.
- Tree care: Large-sheave efficiency and a swivel that accepts carabiners, ropes, or slings.
- Anchor-connected rigging: Install the rope while the pulley remains connected to the anchor.
Users must be trained and competent, verify the complete system, and follow Petzl’s technical notice and applicable professional standards.

SPIN S1 versus SPIN L1 versus SPIN L2
| Feature | SPIN S1 | SPIN L1 | SPIN L2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pulley format | Compact single | Large single | Large double |
| Weight | 145 g | 290 g | 480 g |
| Rope range | 7–11 mm | 7–13 mm | 7–13 mm |
| Sheave diameter | 25 mm | 38 mm | Two 38 mm sheaves |
| Efficiency | 91% | 95% | 95% |
| Maximum working load | 5 kN | 8 kN | 8 kN |
| Breaking strength | 23 kN | 36 kN | 36 kN |
| Best fit | Compact technical rescue, hauling, load deviation, and tensioned-highline systems | Higher-load single-pulley hauling, load deviation, and Tyrolean systems | Complex hauling systems requiring parallel sheaves and an auxiliary attachment point |
Selection guidance
Choose SPIN S1 when compactness and low carried weight are the main priorities. Choose SPIN L1 when you need a larger single sheave, 95% efficiency, and higher load ratings. Choose SPIN L2 when a double pulley and auxiliary attachment point are required for more complex hauling systems.
For simpler fixed-side-plate hauling and load-deviation systems, compare the Petzl FIXE. For progress-capture applications, see Micro Traxion and Nano Traxion.
