Overview
A climber heading onto alpine routes carries this DMM Phantom quickdraw for its low weight. Each carabiner is formed with I-Beam construction, and extra metal is added in the contact areas where rope and gear wear the body.
DMM trims weight without dropping the details that matter on the rock, with a reduced gate notch to reduce snagging. The extra metal at wear points should help the carabiner last. The limitation is gaps in the listing, as there is no breaking strength, gate type or sling description.
Who it's for
Mountain routes and long approaches where rack weight adds up. Climbers who want full strength ratings and gate details on the page, or who need a short draw, should look at other listings.
Pros and cons
- Very low weight per carabiner
- Reduced gate notch resists snagging
- More metal at contact points
- D shape aluminum body
- Breaking strength not listed
- Gate type unstated
- Sling details missing
Performance notes
I-Beam construction removes metal where it carries little load, which is how the weight comes down. A smaller gate notch lowers the chance that the rope or a piece of gear snags on the nose. Added metal at the contact areas reduces wear from rope and gear movement.
