SPECS
Material: Soft Steel
Intended Use: Limestone
U SHAPED FIX RING SOFT PITON
AID CLIMBING, ALPINISM, FIXED ANCHORS
- Hot-forged soft carbon steel
- Ideal for brittle rock like limestone
Most pitons rely on compression of the metal and leverage from directional pull for their holding power. The U shape of the shaft adds an additional holding force by creating spring tension when the piton is driven into a crack proportionately smaller than its width. The soft carbon steel can mold and press more easily into fissures without damaging the rock making soft pitons the right choice for brittle rock like limestone.
