Black Diamond HotWire Carabiner

The extremely versatile Black Diamond HotWire Carabiner has become one of the most popular 'biners around. Use it on sport climbs, trad climbs, and even ice climbs.

Ten years ago the HotWire Carabiner from Black Diamond started the wiregate revolution. And ten years later the award-winning HotWire is still leading the pack, offering the best balance of function, features and value in a wiregate biner. Use it alpine or trad climbing for its lightness or for its clippability when sport climbing. The HotWire's slender, no-bulk wiregate has a firm action that is effortless to clip. In whiplash situations, the gate won�t freeze open or shut due to adverse conditions. Strong, light and super-clippable, the HotWire offers versatility for all types of climbing with its optimal blend of size and weight. The HotWire won Rock Ice Magazine's Best Overall Editor's Choice Award in October 2004.
