5/5 rating

Great for light racks

I use these for racking cams and they keep the harness noticeably lighter. The wiregate has a clean, simple action that works well on long trad days.

4/5 rating

Compact and practical

Small and easy to organize by color, which is exactly what I wanted for nuts and alpine draws. Not oversized, so check your preference if you like bigger clips.

Light but confidence-inspiring

Bought a handful to replace heavier biners on my rack. They feel solid for their size and the 20kN major-axis rating gives me confidence when used correctly.
