Anodized heads on the DMM Wallnuts help you pick the right size to fit the crack when you're way run out and desperate for a piece of pro. In addition to their excellent color coding, Wallnuts have concave grooves in their curved heads to allow them to fit securely in little crannies where other nuts can't go. The next time Elvis leg is shaking out your teeth and a quickly placed piece of gear is a necessity for the send, reach for a DMM Wallnut.

Bottom Line: When you're back's to the wall and you're looking at a big fall, count on the DMM Wallnuts.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

The best for featured rock

By:
October 31, 2011

I am a pretty new trad leader. I have led pitches on friends' BD stoppers as well as my Wallnuts. My general impression is that the complex shape of the Wallnuts (shallow cutouts on the wide sides and a slightly more pronounced curve) sometimes give you a better placement. I climb on featured, East Coast rock, and I especially notice that a small crystal or bump will sometimes seat nicely in the cutout and give you extra confidence that the piece won't walk. If you want the best, Wallnuts are it. The question is whether you feel the need for that slim advantage over cheaper options like the standard BD stoppers.

Really useful shape, very versatile, very strong for the size and weight as compared to other brands they are very tough too. I also really like the fact that they are made in wales. Kind of not important but it makes me happy I really like the colors

[1] 7kN; [2] 9kN.

No, you won't want to run these out if your on lead; but are generally considered fine for full pro.

DMM = BOMBER

By:
January 21, 2010

The Wallnuts are bomb proof. If fallen on, they can be a little tougher than other nuts to clean, but the piece of mind climbing above them are worth it. As with all the DMM products I've used, their quality is top of the line.

Sick Scalloping

By:
February 16, 2009

These nuts bite much better than any other piece I've used, whether BD, Wild Country, or Metolius. The complex grooves and scalloping make for confidence-inspiring placements.

Great Pro

By:

Wallnuts are about the best standard nut you can get (in my opinion). They fit well in all kinds of places and are easy to place. I dig em.

Haven't whipped on these yet, but placing and cleaning is a breeze. Good to feel stoked on the pro you're counting on. These are also offset pretty well by the Omega Pacific ABCs.

The best period

By:
March 19, 2009

Easy to identify colors that match DMM cams and wild country cams/nuts/hexes. They feel very bomber but aren't to heard to remove. The shapes are great allowing you to take advantage of irregularities in the rock. The best I have ever used, expand the set by getting the bigger size wild country rocks!

Bomber

By:
June 15, 2009

As the other reviews have stated, these nuts are shaped perfectly. When I lead with my friends' racks, their stoppers always seem to take extra fiddling to get around irregularities in the crack. The scalloping, the curve, the rounded edges--these nuts place fast, clean easily, and are simply the best I've ever used. They've even arrested a fall or two, which isn't surprising, but definitely inspires confidence. I've also got the Peenuts, which supplement these bad boys perfectly--and are invaluable for pin scars. DMM makes the best nuts--period.

Best nuts on the market

By:
May 26, 2009

I have used nuts of all major brands on the market, and DMM Wallnuts are the best in their class. Tapered shape and groves allow reliable placements in variety of cracks and pokets where no other stoppers work. DMM simply sets the standard for all other manufacturers to follow based on performance, not on the dollar spent on advertisement. It's sad that their new anodization color pattern does not follow the rainbow order of colors. After creating such a great stopper, they are dropping the ball on the colors. What are they thinking about?

Well, DMM and Wild Country do match their colors, which is something that no other companies do. I'd say they caught the ball perfectly. It's nice to have some kind of industry standard.

Wallnuts a staple in my rack

By:
November 30, 2007

Maybe it's because I have used these extensively but I find that I can place them quickly and securely. Also I have taken big lead falls on these and they have held (getting them out again after these falls has always been problematic though and I have had to leave a number of these... apologies to all for having left artifacts).

better than most

By:

Functional

By:

I really like my wallnuts. They seat really well in conventional nut placements and they fit especially well in spots with small rugosities. A good jerk sets them nice and tight. They are light. The anodizing matches Wild Country making for a great mixed set. The red wallnut is my go to piece. I place it every route. Climb on.

Hands down, my favorite nuts!!

By: Backcountry.com Employee

These are my favorite every day use nuts. They bite great and seem to fit better than any other nuts i have. The smaller sizes are my favorite in these. I find myself going for those sometime on nearly every climb and they have held whipper after whipper.

Light

These place very well and are lighter than some other stoppers on the market. I like that they are anodized so you can grab the right nut quicker if you're in a pinch.
