The Black Diamond LiteWire Rackpack is a set of six lightweight, durable carabiners designed for traditional climbing. Each carabiner is color-coded to match Black Diamond Camalots, facilitating easy identification when racking. Engineered with a hot-forged construction, the LiteWire carabiners offer a balance between weight reduction and enhanced durability. The hinge-basket design securely holds the sling of a Camalot or other slings, while the larger rope-bearing surface increases durability for both the carabiner and the rope. Optimized nose geometry ensures efficient clipping and unclipping, making the LiteWire an ultra-durable wiregate carabiner suitable for various climbing applications.
