Metolius ULTRALIGHT TCU (Cosmetic Seconds) |
|
TCUs are great for both alpine and free climbing where weight is a critical factor. Aid climbers also love 'em because their narrow head width allows them to fit so many placements that other cams won't, like shallow seams, pockets and pin scars. And the Range Finder feedback system makes them easier and safer to place than ever.
This cam's stainless steel, U-shaped body offers more durability than single-stem units, plus unparalleled control during placement and retraction. As with all Metolius cams, the design is focused on holding power.
By going direct to the axle (D.A.T.), Metolius has made the world’s best-selling mini cam even lighter and more versatile. This technology makes the company's TCUs light and opens up a myriad of placement options, also making placements easier. The design is focused on holding power through optimized cam angle for more outward force and wider cam faces for more grip.
