Designed for marginal, thin-ice leads, the Spectre offers pound-in protection where nothing else will work.
  • Use as a place-in hook on verglas, slot it into ice-filled cracks or drive as a piton
  • Radical curve keeps load close to ice surface and prevents levering; reverse teeth keeps it seated as you climb past
  • Stamped from ultra-tough 4130 chrome-moly steel
  • Includes 16mm sewn nylon webbing sling--can be looped over top of piton to act as a tie-off
  • Made in USA
