Metolius Ultralight Power Cam Packaged Set

Using Direct Axle Technology, Metolius removed every unneeded scrap of material from the Ultralight TCU to make it as lightweight as possible while still maintaining the ultra-strong construction that Metolius is known for. Urban Climber was so stoked on this cam that it bestowed the Hotness Award. The TCU's narrow head profile combined with the three-cam arrangement allows these cams to fit into very small pockets. Once they're in, the range finder tells you if your placement is good—or not so good. Spectra slings lighten these cams even further. After all, your gear is suppose to help you go up, not hold you down.

Bottom Line: So light that you'll think you left them in your truck.

Solid Cam

By:
September 20, 2009

Used these cams on some nice skinny hand cracks at the monument. Solid placements and easy to clean out. didn't get the chance to fall on them yet but I trust em. Only complaint is placing cams in the green zone tends to overcam them.

Metolius Ultralight Power Cam Packaged Set

By:
November 29, 2008

I used these to fill out my rack that was started on a set of BD C4's. The Metolius Ultralight Power Cam set gives you the ability to double up on most sizes - only downside is that you'll need to have a slightly better eye than the C4's require due to a narrower range for the Met cams.

Light

By:

Metolius doesn’t lie about them being light. I got a package of TCU's and immediately went to city of rocks to use them. Of course, that place loves trad gear, but I was placing them everywhere I could and every placement seemed bomber on the fist set. Needless to say, I fell in love with these cams. Very Happy!!

nice cams

By:
November 28, 2008

I'm a new leader, so running out of gear has been a problem for me, got these to supplement my c4s and aliens. they have a slightly different range then my other cams so they fit some placements better. be careful not to overcam them, they can overcam well past where you'd ever want them to be making removing them pretty difficult sometimes.

Love 'em!

By:

So far I love these cams, super solid feel to them, they place nice, and even on sketchy placements these seem to put me at ease. I would recommend adding these to any trad rack.

Metolius Powercams

By:
March 6, 2008

Great lightweight cams! Placed all four (#5-8) on first multipitch climb with em. Haven't taken a fall on any of them yet but they place fairly easily and seem pretty hardy. The bigger of the cams tend to walk a little bit if not set well, due to the inner lobes being relatively close together. This allows for placements in smaller cracks and pockets for smaller pieces but it seems that camalots are better for bigger cam placements. Hope it helps

Lots of whippers on the best cams ever!

By: Backcountry.com Employee

I was just in Moab, UT climbing on splitter sandstone and I was climbing super hard, pulling some of the hardest cracks I have ever done. On the hardest climb of the week I took several falls on these cams, everything from a rest to a 20+ foot whipper on these cams. Not only did they not pull-out or shift/slide, they held true and sure! You sacrifice a bit of range-per-cam with the single axle, but these cams make up for that in holding power and reliability

wicked light!

These cams rock! I got a set of these and the TCU's and they feel like they don't weigh a thing at all. I also like the range finder dots that let you see if the placement is good or not.
