Description

WildCountry Offset Zero 0.4/0.5 Stopper
Unlock the full potential of your climbing rack with the WildCountry Offset Zero 0.4/0.5 Stopper, a masterfully engineered piece of passive protection designed for the most demanding and unconventional placements. When standard nuts fall short in flared cracks, pin scars, and irregular fissures, this specialized stopper provides the unwavering security you need to push your limits with confidence. It is an indispensable tool for the discerning trad climber, alpinist, and aid climber who frequently encounters complex rock architecture.
The primary advantage of the Offset Zero lies in its unique geometry. Meticulously designed to fit where others won´t, it transforms marginal gear placements into solid, trustworthy protection. This allows you to safeguard routes that were previously difficult or impossible to protect, opening up new lines and enhancing safety on established classics. Its lightweight construction ensures it earns its place on your harness for everything from single-pitch cragging to multi-day alpine ascents, without adding unnecessary weight. These Stoppers are not just a piece of gear; they are a solution to the intricate puzzles presented by natural rock formations.
Main Features:
*Advanced Offset Taper: The defining feature is its radical offset design, with opposing faces set at different angles. This allows for a perfect, multi-point contact fit in non-parallel cracks, flared grooves, and old piton scars where symmetrical nuts would be unstable or only make minimal contact.
*High-Friction Grooved Faces: Each face is precisely grooved to maximize surface area and increase the coefficient of friction against the rock. This superior bite ensures the stopper seats securely and resists pulling out under load, providing exceptional holding power in various rock types, from slick limestone to crystalline granite.
*Optimized Head Shape: The head is engineered for both maximum strength and minimal weight. Its refined shape, combined with rounded edges, not only facilitates smooth placement but also significantly aids in clean and easy removal, preventing the stopper from getting permanently fixed.
*Durable and Flexible Single Wire: A robust yet flexible single wire construction provides excellent handling and durability. It is stiff enough to allow for precise, one-handed placements deep in a crack, yet supple enough to reduce rope drag and move with the rope, preventing the placement from being dislodged.
*Intuitive Color Coding: For rapid identification on your harness when time is of the essence, the stopper is color-coded, allowing you to select the correct piece for the job instantly.
