Engineered as a wiregate trad climbing machine, the Litewire is a small workhorse carabiner.
Description
The Carabiner is featuring a hot-forged construction—allowing Black Diamond to remove weight where it’s not needed and add material where durability is key—and a hinge-basket that holds the sling of a Camalot adds durability not only for the carabiner, but for your rope as well, plus we’ve optimized the nose geometry to allow for efficient clipping, making the Litewire an ultra-durable wiregate just waiting to be racked.- Durable workhorse ideal for trad climbing
- Hot-forged for lighter-weight construction
- Larger rope-bearing surface for added durability
- Nose geometry allows for efficient clipping/unclipping
