EMPOWERING EPIC CLIMBS
Grow your climbing community by providing more access to more routes for more climbers. From 5.0 to 5.15, everyone deserves the opportunity to climb. TRUBLUE makes climbing simple and approachable, turning first-time users into return customers and lifelong members. TRUBLUE Auto Belays are engineered to minimize maintenance and are built to last. The difference is our patented magnetic braking system, which delivers the smoothest user experience, the highest level of reliability (even with high cycle counts), and dramatically reduces device downtime.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The best auto belay in the world just got better. TRUBLUE iQ and iQ+ are the next standard in auto belays, with built-in durability, upgraded webbing, and the magnetic braking that climbers trust. Best of all, TRUBLUE iQ+ features catch-and-hold technology, giving climbers the rest they need to finish their favorite routes.
Magnetic Braking
TRUBLUE is the only auto belay on the market to use magnetic braking.
Unmatched Reliability
Unlike brake pads or hydraulics, TRUBLUEs work as dependably as your compass points north thanks to our patented friction-free magnetic braking technology, ensuring a soft catch every time.
Catch-and-Hold Mode
TRUBLUE iQ+ is the first and only auto belay with Catch-and-Hold technology.
An Auto Belay Like No Other
TRUBLUE iQ+ features a Catch-and-Hold Mode, giving climbers the rest they need to finish routes. Now everyone can make it to the top.
Durable construction
TRUBLUE Auto Belays are handmade in the USA and designed for heavy use, both indoors and out.
Made to Last
From improved, wider webbing, to a built-in back bumper and replaceable mount guard, the iQ series is more durable (and lighter) than ever before.
Low Maintenance
TRUBLUE's patented magnetic braking reduces wear on internal parts.
More Sends, Less Service
Our patented magnetic braking system means there are no pads or contacting parts required for braking, resulting in fewer components with the potential to wear out or fail.
Best Climber Experience
Unassisted ascent for an authentic climbing feel.
Designed for Climbers
Rather than pulling climbers up the wall, our devices offer an unassisted ascent, truer to the quintessential climbing experience.
Certified to the Max
Third-party tested to meet the most rigorous industry requirements.
Engineered for safety
TRUBLUE is engineered to the highest international safety standards, including 10x Class A and Shock Load certification.

PROVEN PERFORMANCE
Preferred by owners, operators, pro-athletes and casual crushers everywhere
“It didn't take long to realize that keeping trained belay staff on the schedule was limiting how often kids could climb. Ever since that first wall, we've used TRUBLUE Auto Belays and the utilization of each wall has gone through the roof.”
"I feel safest when on TRUBLUE Auto Belays. They keep up with my faster runs and when I am practicing specific dynamic movements. They also help make training easier because they don't pull me up the wall or get in the way when I am working on technique."
“I think the TRUBLUE iQ+ is actually an amazing tool for paraclimbing because different athletes with different abilities climb at different speeds.”
“I would have to say our auto belay zone is one of the most active and social areas of our gym. It’s really amazing."
“Auto belays offer a specialized manner of being that is hard to come by otherwise. The ability to run laps non-stop or to hyper-focus on a specific route is both integral to training but also an act of self-empowerment at its core.”
“When people come in and don’t have a climbing partner they naturally go to the auto belays. Instead of people looking around not knowing who to approach, it breaks down those barriers and actually fosters community.”
TEAM TRUBLUE
From the icons of today to the legends of tomorrow, the best climbers in the world choose TRUBLUE Auto Belays to help them reach new heights.
