DMM Brass Offset Features:Micro protection for small cracks: As climbs become harder, the need to make the most of all available protection increases. Micro protection lets you protect cracks which normal sized pieces would not fit. Having these wires on your rack gives you more options.Asymmetrical taper gives stable placements in offset cracks: Nuts with an offset taper protect cracks where normal nuts would not sit properly, such as flared cracks and peg scars. Use in combination with normal nuts to find security in almost any crack.Wires soldered directly into heads for strength: The wires of IMPS and Brass Offsets are soldered directly into their heads. This allows a thicker wire to be used, increasing the strength rating of each nut.Brass heads for optimal characteristics in marginal placements: Brass nuts are made from a special blend of brass and silicone that is soft enough to bite into placements, but hard enough to resist pulling through them. This helps them make the most of marginal placements.Colour coded for easy size identification: The DMM protection range is colour coded for quick and easy size selection. Colours are co-ordinated across passive and active protection, for quick selection of alternatives if your first choice doesn’t fit.Passive protection works in wet and icy conditions: Passive protection works by jamming in constrictions to prevent falls. It is suitable for use in all conditions. Unlike active protection such as cams, passive protection can be used in wet or icy cracks, where friction is reduced.

The DMM Halfnuts excel in shallow placements, pin scars and situations where every gram counts. If they look familiar it’s because they have the same tapered faces and side profile as DMM’s tried and tested Wallnuts. The combined weight of the 1-11 Halfnut sets are 42% lighter than the equivalent Wallnuts and they are similarly colour coded.
The DMM IMP Brass Nuts are invaluable for those pushing into harder grades and need to take advantage of all protection options. The brass alloy used in their construction means that the nuts lock into the rock incredibly well, whilst also resisting being pulled through the placement. These are soldered directly on to wires, allowing a thicker wire to be used and increasing the strength of the IMP. The swage on the wire is colour coded for quick size selection, and allows one side of the wire to slide, letting the IMP self equalize when loaded and increasing placement security.
The DMM Micro Wallnuts are for use in extremely narrow cracks where a normal Wallnut size 1 is too big. The large contact surface area of the Micro Wallnuts allows them to spread loads over a greater area of rock, decreasing the chance of the rock failing. They feature straight sides to give alternative placement options to our other alloy micro-protection. Used in conjunction with Peenuts they provide comprehensive protection for small cracks in friable rock.
The DMM Offset Nuts are made with anodised alloy and are available individually as a size 7-11 set. These are bigger and more rounded than their brass brothers. Based on the famed HB design this anodised alloy offset set gets you placement where no other nut can because of their complex offset shape. Especially useful on granite cracks and colour coded for easy selection off the harness.
The DMM Peenut are small offset nuts (available individually or as a 1 to 5 set)Â are specifically designed for flared cracks and shallow placements, but seem to fit everywhere. Found to be particularly effective on Cornish Granite. Now colour-coded for quick identification.
The DMM Torque Nuts are designed to work in a similar fashion to Rockcentrics meaning they can be placed passively at a constriction or cammed into place in parallel cracks thanks to their offset edges. Additionally they are racked on extendable dyneema allowing the nuts to be neatly stowed on your harness and then extended when placed, eliminating then need for extra quickdraws. Four sizes are available covering a very wide range of large cracks.
The Trango Ballnutz are clever camming devices that are not only quick to place, but also work in parallel sided placements where standard protection just won't work. They use a sliding ball-and-ramp that wedge against each other to hold in small parallel-sided cracks. Their holding power is so great that they provide excellent strength and fit where previously you could only hammer home a peg.
The Wild Country Rocks are lighter than the Classic Rocks and feature a colour identification system which makes it easy to differentiate between sizes. They have a longer profile and a gentle side taper which helps with ease and security of placement. Now available in fourteen sizes and keeping their ground-breaking curved design, the Wild Country Rocks are the backbone of any good rack! Whether you're just starting or or a seasoned climber, you can't go wrong with a set of Rocks.
