Petzl Fixe Micropulley
The Petzl Fixe Micropulley is a compact, fixed-side-plate pulley engineered for efficiency in arborist climbing systems. Its self-lubricating bushing keeps the sheave running smoothly without maintenance — one less thing to think about when you're focused on the work above. Fixed side plates keep the pulley stable and correctly positioned, making it a reliable choice for rope wrench setups and redirects.
Petzl's reputation for precision and durability is built into every component, and the Fixe is no exception — a workhorse micropulley that performs consistently in professional daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a self-lubricating bushing?
A self-lubricating bushing is made from a material that reduces friction without requiring grease or oil. This means the sheave runs smoothly right out of the box and stays that way over time with no maintenance required.
How does this compare to the ISC Fixed Cheek Micropulley?
Both are fixed-plate micropulleys, but the Petzl Fixe features a self-lubricating bushing for enhanced efficiency. The ISC Fixed Cheek Micropulley has a slightly higher MBS at 24 kN and is specifically noted for rope wrench tether compatibility.
Looking for a pulley with opening side plates?
See the CMI Micropulley for a swiveling side plate option ideal for slack tending and fairlead control.
