Metolius Ultralight Range Finder Power Cam Set #5 - #8 (4 Cams)

THESE FOUR CAMS WOULD COST $238 IF PURCHASED INDIVIDUALLY!!!

Range Finder is a feature on Metolius Cams size 2 and larger that helps you assess placement quality, thereby making the cams safer and easier to place. It's a powerful tool to let you know where you are within a cam's range. Just read the gauge where the cam lobe contacts the rock.

  • Green Zone: Green means go! A placement in the Green Zone indicates that you have chosen the optimally sized unit.
  • Yellow Zone: Caution! This is a decent placement but the next size up would be solidly in the Green Zone, resulting in a more stable placement. Use placements in the Yellow Zone if nothing else is available or if you need to conserve the next size up for a critical placement higher up.
  • Red Zone: Stop! This is a very poor placement. Use a larger unit or find another placement. Only use a placement in the Red Zone if nothing else is available.

With their optimized logarithmic spiral and thicker cam faces on each individual cam, Power Cam 4 cam units have increased surface area and develop more outward force. This provides increased holding power throughout the cam's active range. Hence, the name Power Cam.

Metolius traded a bit of range for what they feel is the most important attribute of a cam - that it stays put when you fall on it! Like the amazing TCU, the Power Cam is built on the same stainless steel U-shaped body, giving you unparalleled control of handling and placement.

    Features:
  • Four cam unit
  • Greater holding power
  • New cam angle and increased surface area
  • Beefier cam stops
  • Precision milled parts for tight tolerances

INCLUDES BOTTLE OF CAM LUBE!

Direct Axle Technology makes the world's best selling mini cam even lighter and more versatile. DAT makes Metolius FCU's the lightest units in the world, opens up a myriad of placement options and makes placements easier.

They're indispensable for free climbing, aid routes and alpine climbing.
