DMM Torque Nut

Torque Nuts are designed with a unique, camming-like shape that allows them to be placed in multiple orientations, including active camming positions. This versatility makes them significantly more effective in irregular or parallel-sided cracks where standard nuts might not seat securely.

Yes, they are excellent for winter conditions. Unlike mechanical camming devices, which can freeze or struggle to grip in icy rock, these passive nuts provide reliable, consistent protection regardless of temperature or ice buildup.

The wired design offers better control during overhead placements, allowing you to seat the nut precisely where you need it. It also provides increased durability and resistance to accidental strikes from ice axes, which is a common concern in winter climbing.

The full set of four weighs 430g. While they are slightly heavier than a set of micro-nuts, their ability to replace several pieces of gear in tricky cracks often results in a net weight saving for your overall rack.

Yes, DMM uses a standardized color-coding system across their protection range. This makes it intuitive to identify the correct size quickly while you are on the wall, reducing time spent fumbling with your gear.
