Next Generation Auto Belay – TRUBLUE iQ

The world’s most used and safest auto belay has just gotten better. The next generation TRUBLUE iQ Auto Belay is more durable and lighter than ever before, thanks to the same innovative magnetic brakes that climbers enjoy. It is also upgrade-ready, as it was designed with the future in mind. Don’t lose out on the next great climbing breakthrough; future-proof your company with TRUBLUE iQ today.

The TRUBLUE Auto Belay is a self-regulating belay device designed to protect a climber without the need of a partner. Unlike traditional belay devices that depend on friction to provide a braking force, the TRUBLUE Auto Belay magnetic braking is unique because there are no parts in contact within the braking system!

Due to its high-quality design, proprietary magnetic technology, and dependable performance, the TRUBLUE Auto Belay has swiftly become the most trusted and extensively used auto belay in the world. It’s the next generation of auto belays for indoor and outdoor climbing walls. Thousands of TRUBLUEs are in use at climbing gyms, rope courses, and family entertainment centers across the world, thanks to their design for the climbing business. Years of study, development, and testing went into the self-regulating magnetic braking system. They’ve been designed to meet the most stringent safety requirements.

The TRUBLUE iQ PLUS Auto Belay is the latest generation of climbing wall auto belays for both indoor and outdoor use. Thousands of TRUBLUEs have been installed in climbing gyms, ropes courses, family entertainment centers, and other locations across the world.

Years of research, development, and testing went into TRUBLUE’s self-regulating magnetic braking system. Our auto belay is built for climbers and designed to be safe. TRUBLUE Auto Belays are designed to meet the most stringent safety requirements, including comprehensive testing by TÜV/SÜD Product Service GmbH, one of the world’s top certification authorities.

TRUBLUE was created exclusively for the climbing industry and is now used in climbing gyms, indoor and outdoor climbing walls, recreation centers, training facilities, camps, and colleges all over the world. TRUBLUE is the most trusted auto belay for a variety of reasons.

Technology of Magnetic Braking

Magnetic braking technology is used exclusively by TRUBLUE, making it the only auto belay on the market. Magnetic braking is more reliable than friction-based braking since it does not rely on friction to produce braking action.

System that regulates itself

The magnetic braking system of a TRUBLUE adjusts and responds to the weight of the participant automatically. This means that both children and adults will have a smooth fall at similar rates.

Low Ownership Costs

There are no friction pads or contacting parts necessary for braking using eddy current magnetic braking, therefore there are fewer components that could wear out or fail. This increases reliability while lowering maintenance costs in the long run.

More Climbers & More Walls

The TRUBLUE auto belay system has the widest weight and height range of any modular auto belay system. TRUBLUE supports weights ranging from 22 pounds (10 kilograms) to 330 pounds (150 kilograms), and our XL model has a maximum mounting height of 65 feet (19.8m).

Safety Requirements that are the most stringent

Our TRUBLUE auto belay complies with the most stringent safety requirements of any auto belay available.

Installing or relocating the system is simple.

  • The TRUBLUE’s compact, modular design makes it simple to set up and relocate.
  • International safety criteria are met: TRUBLUE was created with climbers in mind and is built to last. TRUBLUE was designed to meet international fall arrest device safety standards.
  • Comprehensive safety testing: The TRUBLUE auto belay has been subjected to extensive safety testing by an ISO 17025 qualified product testing company for over four years.
