The Metolius Ultralight TCU Package includes five mini cams that fit in small cracks found on most trad climbing routes. These TCUs crave tiny fissures, horizontal pin scars, and pinky sized finger cracks. Direct Axle Technology DAT helps these Ultralight beauties live up to their name, weighing around 10 ounces together. DAT also allows for trickier placements in shallower sections, and the wider lobes work with the optimized cam angle to provide a better grip in softer rock such as sandstone and volcanic tuff. Metolius equipped the bigger TCUs with a range finder to help beginners see the difference between a well placed cam versus a tipped out cam. Machine cam stops let these TCUs double as stoppers when placed passively, and the Monster Sling ensures long lasting durability for many seasons of sending.
