Description & Tech Specs
Use
Narrows and Wides are the workhorses of the group. Double up on these in order to make sequential moves by leapfrogging them. Use this method to climb cleanly and quickly, placing pro as if you were free climbing.
Fragile Flake/Extra Wides have less leverage against the rock and are less likely to break off delicate features. They are made of aluminum which is softer than steel and has a better “bite” on the rock to increase holding friction.
The Micro fits into smaller cracks and constrictions. Caution: Do not use Micro cam hooks in “inverted” placements.
Care
Finish: A water-displacing dry film oil is applied to steel cam hooks during manufacturing. If a surface becomes rusty, remove rust with Scotch-Brite or a fine abrasive pad. Aluminum cam hooks can become oxidized by prolonged exposure to the elements and can be polished with Scotch-Brite or a fine abrasive pad. Remove any moisture from cam hook surfaces and oil with a good water-displacing product (WD-40 or equivalent) when not in use. Wipe off excess oil with a clean, dry cloth. Store in a dry place.
Shape: Use a file to remove any burrs that have resulted from heavy use. Do not use a grinder or belt sander. This will undo the heat treating.
