Camp Ball Nuts are a for the slim and grim, they are a specialist sliding climbing nut, which offer protection in thin cracks as small as 3mm! Unique and useful, Camp Ball Nuts can save your bacon in some free climbing circumstances. They are really popular in the US for their aid climbing properties, as they are the only choice for hammerless aid-climbing protection in thin parallel-sided cracks. When the going gets thin, pull the trigger and place a Ball Nut in a crack, release the trigger and opposing forces of the brass ball and aluminium nut holds these tiny pieces of protection in place, where they offer an impressive 8kN load protection. Much faster and easier on the rock than banging in a knifeblade, Ball Nuts are the last word in protecting thin free climbs and saving time on aid-climbing lines.
