The Batarangs. is Batman's primary iconic throwing weapon; it's very similar to the ninja's shurikens and is collapsible so that a large number of them can fit inside Batman's utility belt.
The Batline/ Batrope/ Batclaw and Bat grapple. Ever wonder how is that Batman can take out his enemies in such a stealth manner? He does so by concealing himself from great heights, using a handheld grappling hook that shoots out a claw-shaped projectile that's on a retractable high-tensile cord, which grabs onto any surface—allowing Batman to hook buildings or pull down walls.
Smoke Pellets. Batman deploys smoke pellets by throwing or breaking open small hardened-gelatin spheroid capsules. The smoke pellets are the primary tools he uses to evade his enemies.
