Aluminium 3.1 Click Climbing Spikes

Description

The third evolution of the proven aluminium climbing spur offers maximum performance, durability and comfort. It impresses with an unbeatable price-performance ratio:

• Extremely light: The aluminium shank with its 3-dimensional skeleton minimises weight and enables hours of work without fatigue. The lightest aluminium climbing spur on the market.
• Robust: Extremely strong and durable, even under the toughest conditions, thanks to hot-forged aluminium with an optimised cross-section and stronger alloy.
• Maximum power transmission: The straight shank optimally transmits the force applied.
• Full grip: Anti-slip ribs on the underside of the shank provide grip on branches.
• Sustainably produced: State-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, short and preferably regional supply chains, fair working conditions in a German production facility and a high-quality, durable product ensure the smallest possible ecological footprint.

Pads Plus

• Additional padding for the shin and calf is provided with a foam plate that is 50% larger than its predecessor. The Pads Plus encloses almost the entire leg.
• An optimal fit in the shell and ultimately on the user’s leg is achieved by a grid structure of the pad.
• The grid structure leads to a punctual pressure distribution, which gives the user an increased subjective feeling of comfort.
• 0.8″ (20 mm) thick foam cushions every pressure point and impact.

Gaffs with black Teflon (PTFE) coating

• High-quality steel precision casting from southern Germany.
• Special heat treatment that creates a structure with an excellent compromise between hardness and toughness.
• Rockwell C hardness (HRC): 50
• PTFE is widely known as Teflon, a highly developed plastic that drastically reduces friction and breakaway torques, e.g. in aluminium sockets. Easier release of the gaff from the wood saves force and stress.
• Pre-sharpened, extremely sharp gaffs are ready for immediate use.

Lower and upper Click-Buckles-Straps

• Cobra® click buckles from AustriAlpin on the lower and upper straps allow the climbers to be put on and taken off quickly. In combination with VELCRO® brand Velcro® fasteners, the result is a firm, play-free fit. Once adjusted, off you go.
• The gold standard for more than 25 years. The third evolution of the tried-and-tested aluminium climbing spurs offers maximum performance and durability. It impresses with an unbeatable price-performance ratio. Now in a brand new design.
