Maintenance and Repair

Get tradical with the LiteWire Rackpack, which comes with six LiteWire carabiners that are color-coded to match our Camalots for easy identification when racking. Engineered as a wiregate trad climbing machine, the LiteWire is a small workhorse carabiner featuring a hot-forged construction-allowing us to remove weight where it's not needed and add material where durability is key-and a hinge-basket that holds the sling of a Camalot or sling perfectly. A large rope bearing surface adds durability not only for the carabiner, but for your rope as well, plus we've optimized the nose geometry to allow for efficient clipping, making the LiteWire an ultra-durable wiregate just waiting to be racked.

An attractive, shiny, metal accessory biner perfect for attaching climbing shoes, water bottles and keys to your pack.

Engineered for the light and fast climber that’s counting every gram, the MiniWire is the lightest, fully-functional carabiner in the Black Diamond line-up. Perfect for minimizing weight on long trad or alpine routes, the MiniWire is durable, with a modern design, featuring a hot-forged lightweight construction, and an optimized nose geometry for easy clipping/unclipping. Go big, go MiniWire.
