DMM Wallnuts Sets

Item #DMM0010 | 48 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good stuff... but perform similarly to other manufacturers

By Ranked #39 - Big Wall Climbing June 5, 2011

Nuts are bread and butter for trad climbing. I've got a set myself and am very happy with them.

However, when I fell on my No.3 nut, it vanished. Whether the wire snapped and spun off into the sea or was abducted by aliens, I'll never know.

To be honest, I'm of the opinion that most brands of nuts perform equally well. I never have any problems with my DMM ones, and I don't have problems when I use my mate's BD ones. He also got a set of WC ones for anchoring and they seem to perform well too.

Regarding removal, I've had to hack away with all the diff manufacturers nuts. That's just life. Not left a DMM nut behind yet, although my friend recently had to admit defeat when trying to retrieve one of his BD ones.
