Metolius Offset TCU Set of 5 SAVE 15% WHEN YOU BUY THE SET! New Metolius Offset TCU’s are designed specifically for hard to protect flared micro-fissures & pin scars. They use two smaller cam lobes and one larger lobe to accomplish this. Working with Ivo Ninov and partners over the past two years has convinced us of their validity. Ivo has raved about their performance on free & aid walls in Yosemite and Zion and is quoted as saying “you guys must do these units…they are sooooo bomber”! The narrow head width fits nearly anywhere and the U-shaped body absolutely doesn’t hinder placement. In fact it gives a very stable framework in which to hold the cam lobes. Unlike other brands, the Metolius TCU’s can withstand multiple walls worth of abuse. Offset Cams are specialized pieces designed to fit in flaring pin scars, primarily for aid climbing. Cams placed in flaring cracks are far more susceptible to pulling out than placements in parallel-sided cracks. Climbers using Offset Cams should be very experienced in the art of cam placement and thoroughly understand the limitations of cams placed in flaring cracks.
