Alpha Trad Quickdraw

The Alpha Trad is DMM's most ergonomic carabiner, with a back design that is easy to manipulate and clip. Fully clean nosed, it won't snag on gear or ropes. Connected with a Dynatec 11mm sling, the Alpha Trad quickdraw gives excellent handling whether sport, trad, or winter climbing.

Features

• All-round range are mounted on 11mm Dynatec to give quickdraws that can be used for sport, trad, or winter climbing. Full-sized carabiners are easy to handle when pumped or wearing gloves, while 11mm Dynatec is lightweight and robust. If you want one set of quickdraws to cover all your climbing, go for all-rounders.
• The Alpha's shape fits naturally in the hand and combines with its large gate opening to make the carabiner very easy to clip. Grooves on the back bar increase grip for confident handling.
• Wire gates are the lightest gate type available and are appropriate for trad, alpine, and winter climbing, where minimal weight is desirable. They are less likely to freeze and clog with ice than solid gate biners, making them ideal for winter and alpine climbing.

• I-Beam construction techniques allow carabiners to be lighter without compromising strength. This is achieved through hot forging, a process that allows the metal to be made into complex shapes that improve functionality.
• Dynatec is strong and light, allowing thin and flexible slings to be used to connect carabiners. An 11mm diameter sling strikes a balance between minimal weight and durability, creating lightweight quickdraws that can withstand repeated use.
