Wallnut Nut Set 1-6

Product Description

DMM Wallnuts:  Set 1-6

Wallnuts are a long established favourite across the world. This classic wired nut has a carefully designed shape that gives you the best possible chance of getting a good solid placement every time.

Wallnuts are the basis on which to build a comprehensive climbing rack.  Complemented by other, more specialised pieces of protection, they are guaranteed to be the most regularly used piece of protection on your harness.  Think of it as the platform upon which you can build your own personalised system.

Despite their simple appearance, Wallnuts are highly featured pieces of climbing hardware. Different alloy is used for each size
- smaller Wallnuts are made from a harder alloy to prevent shearing, while larger sizes are softer so they can bite into placements. Larger Wallnuts feature hollow construction to reduce weight.

Wallnuts can be placed in two different orientations, allowing a single nut to cover a range of cracks. They are tapered across both their face & sides, helping them sit better in cracks that are rarely parallel sided. Grooved faces reduce weight, help the nut seat better in cracks, improve security in shallow placements, & resist lifting out when a leader moves past them.

Wallnuts are mounted on wires that are stiff enough to allow overhead placements, while flexible enough to reduce the chance of lifting out. They are colour coded to correspond with the rest of our protection range, & to give quick & easy selection of the correct size from your harness.

Over the years DMM have continued to refine & improve the design. Modern production techniques have allowed them to make huge reductions in the weight, but without sacrificing strength or durability.  The energy you will save by making speedy nut placements could be the difference between success & failure on a route. The colours are compatible with other nut brands, so if you’re thinking of mixing & matching, or want to switch brands entirely you won’t have to get used to a new colour/size pattern.

Features:

• Wallnut Set 1-6 (Assorted)
• Curved taper gives stable placements & resists lifting out: A Wallnut's curving taper fits a wide variety of cracks in different rock types. Their design creates three points of contact between the nut & rock in a placement, giving stable placements that resist lifting out.
• Allows placement in two orientations for increased versatility: Passive protection can be placed either side or face on, doubling the number of cracks any single piece can protect.
• Grooved faces improve security in irregular rock: Wallnuts & Offsets have a groove machined into their faces, allowing them to sit better in irregular placements & on highly featured rock. This makes them more versatile across different rock types.
• Colour coded for easy size identification: The DMM protection range is colour coded for quick & easy size selection. Colours are co-ordinated across passive & active protection, for quick selection of alternatives if your first choice doesn't fit.
