About DMM Torque Nut

Climbing Gear - DMM Torque Nut
The DMM Torque nuts are a cleverly designed passive protection device that not only sits in a crack but thanks to it's innovative shape, naturally cams round to get a more secure placement. With 4 sizes covering a wide range of gap sizes, the colour coded Torque Nuts will offer protection in most situations but come into their own when placed horizontally when the pull on the dyneema can add to the torque force.
With a double length or strong dyneema sling, it can be used doubled up or extended to it's max length in off route cracks to avoid adding extra slings. On the nut, the dyneema sits in a large countersunk groove which makes racking much easier and allows you to climb less encumbered.
