Mammut Moses Wire Gate Carabiner

Mammut stepped up to the needs of weight-obsessed climbers by creating the 27g Moses Wire Gate Carabiner. This ultralight 'biner should be on your rack whether you cast off for a long single-push alpine climb or 20 pitches of rock. The wire gate on the Moses Carabiner doesn't freeze shut in cold weather and eliminates gate flutter to reduce the chance that you'll load an open-gate 'biner at the end of a 40-footer. Trad, ice, or alpine—the Mammut Moses Wire Gate Carabiner lightens your rack.

Bottom Line: Shave ounces from your rack and move faster thanks to the 27-gram Moses Wire Gate Carabiner.

Light is Right

These are the best biners I've ever used. A Metolius Powercam with a Moses biner weighs half of the old set-up I used to run. This adds up to a pretty significant weight savings on a complete rack, especially when you include quickdraws and free biners..... I love these for sport climbing too, and find the small size actually makes for easier clipping. I'm pretty excited about these!!

I've been debating between getting Wild Country Xenon Lite,

I've been debating between getting Wild Country Xenon Lite, BD Oz or Mammut Moses biners and the deciding factor right now seems to be the lack of hooded gate on the Moses. Do you ever find the whole "gate opening due to rubbing on the rock" a problem? I have some Moses and Xenon Lites already and like them both otherwise. Moses weighs the least, Xenon the most...

You hit the nail on the head...no hooded gate! I personally can't stand non-hooded biners, yes they do open on the rock, like at anchor, etc...I run mostly Oz, and some Xenons. I really like them both. I think I got xenon's because Oz were out of stock once.

Great Biner

Use these on my trad and ice rack for long draws and racking. Can't get enough of them, and for the price they are a steal...compared to something like the Trango Superfly or the Nano or OZ.

I just ordered 30 of these to replace most of the biners on my rack. I am hoping for the smaller size to cut down on bulk. I have done quite a bit of research and found nothing that suggest a smaller biner is a bad idea. Anyone have any other thoughts on using these biners for multi-pitch routes?

I agree with steph that once you get used to these biners, they are actually easier to clip than larger ones. They have beautiful, smooth gate action and because I have smaller hands they are actually easier to clip for me.

I've replaced all my biners with these, even sport draws! The weight is unbelievable. On a big rack of gear, you will immediately cut down half the weight. That means you carry less, weigh less, and climbing is instantly easier! Presto! Initially I thought smaller biners would be harder to clip (like on the sport draws), but now I am so used to them that I actually find it harder to clip big, heavier biners. I am totally in love with these things, and give them all thumbs up :)

The only problem with a smaller biner is that it's harder to clip the rope into on a desperate clip, so often people just replace the bolt side of their draws. On big alpine routes, that's not such an issue, so people replace all of them. If the fast clipping isn't an issue, then go for it.

Love 'em

My new favorite biner! Super light, and the bearing surface near the base is a little more substantial then the new BD equivalent. I'll be slowly adding these to my rack as needed. Although, I should note they are on the smaller side.

Mammut

A tad small. I only boulder so I'm just using them to hold my gear onto my bag. They definitely work as gear holders and I think it would be impossible to scratch them so I'm happy.
