I probably use these the most on my rack. They just seem to fit a lot of things out here near Boulder, CO. As one reviewer mentions below, these don't come with a 'climbing' carabiner. Although this is a bit disappointing, it has never been an issue as I always take the stopper off then use a quickdraw on the stopper. It's definitely not worth giving these a bad review, and with all the quality control BD has, I've trusted these a ton to my life, and they've come through as expected.

If I wanted to start trad climbing for a cheap price, what would I need? (I already have many carabieners and runners, plus an experienced parnter but he doesn't have a rack)

Carabiner is not a climbing carabiner

By:
March 8, 2011

There is no reason to sell a set of nuts with some cheapo chinese plastic non-climbing carabiner. There are a number of problems with this, and frankly, I am surprised at BD for doing it. This carabiner very closely resembles a real carabiner in the photo and you would have no idea until you get it. And if you were a total gumby you might even end up using it while climbing (less likely) but possible.

What further complicates the matter is that BD always sells their nut sets with an actual carabiner. How was I supposed to know? False advertising and dangerous decision from a respected (by me) US company. Backcountry, you should check your listing as well. This would be an obvious thing to mention as it changes the deal substantially and is unsafe (in my opinion).

UPDATE: Backcountry has resolved the issue for me. Their customer service fixed the issue (somewhat reluctantly). I still recommend BD stoppers however, not this set beacause of the problem mentioned above. Also, it's not clear on BD's website that this carabiner is not a climbing carabiner. Go figure! I am following up with BD offline.

The reason that they put the plastic carabiener on the stoppers is because thats how you rack stoppers...you put them all on one carabiener and then you use quickdraws to attach them to the rope.

Great Stoppers

BD makes quality products and these stoppers are no exception! They place well and the color coding is super helpful. I prefer the Metolius Ultralight Curved Nuts more, but I also carry these on my rack.
