DMM Alloy Offsets Red 9 — High-Strength Crag Protection for Irregular Cracks

Overview

Meet the DMM Alloy Offsets - Red 9, a compact set designed to address irregular and flared cracks where traditional nuts struggle. Each size carries a robust 12 kN strength rating, offering a dependable option when edging into tough placements. The mounting wires sit in a recessed channel to minimize wear as you move through a route, and the larger sizes incorporate holes to shave weight without compromising strength. When paired with Wallnuts, they provide year-round crack protection for a range of wall styles.
