Featuring DMM's ultra lightweight Shield wiregate krabs, this 12cm QD set is light and easy clipping with minimum chance of the gate fluttering, freezing or gunging up.
The Shield features a patented clean nose design and I beam technology. The clean nose is means that the biner does not snag gear, steep routes can be cleaned much more easily and there are no recesses on the nose to catch on protection and allow the biner to be dangerously loaded away from the spine.
The Shield is based on the original Wirelock, but features several improvements. A narrower nose allows small pegs and bolts to be clipped easily, whilst the revised gate means clipping is faster and cleaner. The use of the I-beam technology has allowed us to reduce the weight from 44g to 35g and still keep the shockingly strong 10kN open gate strength.
Dyneema QD sling may vary in colour. Also available as 18cm QD.
