DMM ALPHA TRAD WIRE GATE QUICK DRAW 18CM

The DMM Alpha Trad 18cm quickdraw is a mid-length, lightweight quickdraw.

This quickdraw features two DMM Alpha Trad carabiners, which are hot-forged, making them light with a high strength rating. The clean-nose wire gate prevents snagging and enables super-slick clipping – reducing fumbling, even when you're wearing gloves. DMM Alpha Trad carabiners are ergonomically designed with a kinked back that seats the DMM Alpha Trad comfortably in your hand. Grooves on the spine make the DMM Alpha Trad easier to handle and grip. Subtle bends in the wire gate create even tension for a consistent opening action. DMM carabiners use a higher tension to prevent accidental opening.

Ideal for anything from cragging to expeditions.

Also available as a 12cm quickdraw.

Note: Colours may vary. If you have a preference, please call us 03 9600 0599.

REVIEWS

“When I was on a route and removed the first quickdraw off my harness, some of the design features of the Alpha immediately become clear. ” —rockclimbinguk.co.uk

“The wire gate is cunningly designed, with an asymmetrical and quite complex set of curves on each side of the loop that balance ease of opening neatly against a crisp spring closure.” —UKC
